Joe: His Better Life

By Guy Hallowes

Joe Wacheera escaped the poverty and exploitation of Nairobi's Kibera slum, to carve out a successful life in London. With his wife Isabel and their three children, they run Anderson Wacheera, a thriving financial and construction enterprise.

But beneath this veneer of success, shadows from Joe's past loom large. Once involved in a dangerous people-smuggling operation on the Libyan coast and now an unwilling MI5 operative, Joe is forced back into the perilous world he thought he'd left behind. Tasked with infiltrating a ruthless Russian military-led smuggling ring, Joe's mission becomes even more treacherous when Alice Osborne-the British agent he once saved-reappears, bringing both professional and personal temptations that threaten to unravel his idyllic life.

An unprovoked violent, racist attack against Joe's family introduces them to Kamau Lawrence, a fellow Kenyan. Unwittingly, their own actions force them to face a new and dangerous situation. This battle against prejudice and violence becomes the catalyst for a series of events that will dramatically irrevocably alter the course of Joe and Isabel's lives forever.

In this pulse-pounding thriller, Joe's past collides with his present, forcing him to confront the darkest corners of human existence
