5 out of 5 stars Us and Them   December 31, 2007
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

An incredible and compelling read with a powerful insight into the high and low aristocracy. A week later, I find myself wandering back to the events.
Even today, it appears a second generation happy valley Lord to be, will escape with his second barefaced murder.



5 out of 5 stars Brilliant and shocking   September 10, 2003
 10 out of 10 found this review helpful

This book is an absolute eye-opener for those who are keen on learning more about colonial Africa. To read how the upper class settlers behaved and lived some 60 years ago is definitely stunning in it's vulgarity. This you do not usually read about! But wait, there's even more: it's also a first class detective story. Not the usual John Grisham kind, but factional. Deep investigative work. Autobiographical. I'll gladly admit I read it all in one weekend and enjoyed myself thoroughly. Buy it!


4 out of 5 stars Very interesting account of a fascinating mystery   June 25, 2001
 8 out of 8 found this review helpful

Fox's account of the decadent life and premature death of Josslyn Hay, Lord Erroll, makes fascinating reading, particularly if one has an interest in colonial Africa. While not necessarily the most flowing account of a complicated situation, it shed useful light on the mystery of Lord Erroll's death. Anyone who is interested in the case should also read "The Life and Death of Lord Erroll" by Errol Trzebinski, which puts a completely new spin on the mystery and contradicts the conclusions reached by Fox.


4 out of 5 stars An intriguing true-life murder mystery.   January 17, 1999
 7 out of 7 found this review helpful

I found this book of particular interest since I lived in Kenya briefly, and am familiar with many of the locations mentioned. Even for those who have never been to Africa, this book is a definite page turner, especially since it is fact, not fiction.
