We follow Mr. Jones to Balooma, and events there—the great Kwana festival, the ritual dances, and the history of the Ivory Soul—will, we think, make even the most hardened reader blink and read rapidly on. Mr. Sprigg has in fact surpassed even Death of a Queen and Death of an Airman ; he combines an exciting murder story with a no less exciting glimpse into West African life, and leavens the whole with comedy. |
