In book two Nwadibia's lucky escape into the African jungle has caused a lot of angst among the villagers, who attributed the failure of his capture to the lack of experience of the newly appointed police chief, Marcus. The presence of Nwadibia and his henchmen had the cities, villages and hamlets on tenterhooks, making the inhabitants live under a blanket of fear. The malign existence in the region had to be dealt with as soon as possible. A disgraced Marcus is replaced by new police chief Donatus, who recruits Tobias and Paulina. However, the relationship between the two incredibly talented police officers, is complicated by Paulina's lust for her handsome colleague Tobias and Tobias's demons. Will Tobias and Paulina bring Nwadibia to justice or will justice be served by the villagers?
The title Smiling Death Gang graphically illustrates the theme and the flavour of this book. A feast for those who thrive on reading about violence, crime, cruelty and totally weird characters; it features a gang of violent criminals who terrorise the citizens of local villages. Allergic to work, they subsist on hanging around the local motor park, touting for tips and looking for opportunities to cause havoc; even going so far as to gate-crash a wedding, steal the guest's handbags and then break up the wedding ceremony, just for the hell of it. Nwadibia, their leader, ugly as sin, shuffles along the street, constantly plotting ways of exacting revenge against his enemies or torturing the citizenry. Lovers of intrigue and violence grab this one!
