The Grifter's Razor - Paperback

by Ndubichi Okezue (Author)

In Nigeria's pre-internet era of the early 1990s, a Lagos city police detective is on the trail of a group of ex-soldiers who have reinvented themselves as sweet-talking con artists specializing in the art of enticing gullible European and American businessmen with "too-good-to-be-true" scams with disastrous consequences.

With more foreigners falling victim to scams, and some winding up dead, would Detective Ikenna Kodilinye be able to take on the ruthless soldiers-turned-fraudsters?

This crime fiction novel is set in six countries with Nigeria being the primary location where most of the events in the book play out. Throughout the novel, references are made to the history, culture, politics and geography of Nigeria and other countries featured as well.
