The twists and turns in the storyline expose criminals’ characters which is the facde behind which they carry out and hide their motives and evil deeds. This detective novel, is a great creative work which explores human intrigues, which propels them to commit crimes and at the same time they try to cover their tracks so that, they are not caught or are criminally not liable. Odongkara uses his training skill and charm- ing personality to uncover the murderer of the Director of Medical Research Institute in Kitgum.

The author cleverly blends suspense with romance the story which compels the readers to read to the end of the novel.I strongly recommend you read the novel The Director Murdered by Professor Emmanuel Igwaro Odongo- Aginya to understand the mind of the criminal and how the investigator uses his tactics and charming personality to expose the criminals.
