A murder on an African island. What is the Mafia doing there? And why are Bob Dukes' three adventurous young children kidnapped and held on a dhow? Bob Dukes lives on the idyllic tropical island of Mazita where he is the single parent of Poppy, Suze and Charlie. His boss, the Governor of this Crown Protectorate on the East African coast, is always calling Bob into his office and giving him some impossible task, well outside his job description as Commercial Officer and Aide. In this quirky tale, the future success of the island as an off-shore center is threatened by the strong whiff of corruption. Bob attempts to get to the bottom of things and see the guilty punished while he staves off life threats to the islanders and his family. Once again, his friend, the Queen, comes to his rescue with helpful advice and support. Money laundering is involved long before the term was even coined
