Description - Easy Motion Tourist: An Amaka Series by Leye Adenle

Easy Motion Tourist is a compelling crime novel set in contemporary Lagos. It features Guy Collins, a British hack who stumbles into the murky underworld of the city. A woman's mutilated body is discarded outside a club near one of the main hotels in Victoria Island. Collins is a bystander and is picked up by the police as a potential suspect. After experiencing the unpleasant realities of a Nigerian police cell, he is rescued by Amaka, a guardian angel of Lagos working girls. As Collins discovers more of the darker aspects of what makes Lagos tick including the clandestine trade in organs he also slowly falls for Amaka. Little do they realise just how much organ trafficking is wrapped up in the power and politics of the city. Easy Motion Tourist pulsates with the rhythms of Lagos and entertains from beginning to end.


Easy Motion Tourist is modern thriller featuring a strong female protagonist, unusual in African fiction.


Picked as one of The Guardian (UK)'s 'top 5' in a recent crime review round-up (June 2016)
