My run of coincidental book linking continues. Recently read a book I disliked, non-fiction, that took place in Accra, Ghana, and the US. I pick up this mystery, which takes place in Accra, Ghana and the Volta region of Ghana. I've now skipped over another book about Africa (non-fiction, Burundi,) to give some space, and am looking forward to the parallels that will make themselves apparent in my new book. But back to Wife of the Gods. I've heard it compared to the No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency, but I suppose only because it is a mystery set in Africa. Everything else is different, except that in reading the mystery you get a good taste of the culture. As a person who doesn't especially like mysteries, this was an enjoyable one and I look forward to the next Darko Dawson mystery, as I assume there will be more. Good writing, good mystery.
