When twin brothers Sly and Nathan, their sister Jane, and their adventurous friend Musa pedal their bicycles down the slopes of Kanye, Botswana, they expect nothing more than a break from boredom. Instead, they plunge into a whirlwind of danger. After taking shelter in a reputedly haunted bungalow during a massive storm, the young team uncovers a trail of clues leading straight to an abandoned manganese mine—and a massive criminal operation. Packed with secret codes, hidden tunnels, and a high-stakes plot to frame their own father, "The Mystery of Kgwakgwe Hills" is an atmospheric, lightning-fast adventure where ordinary friends must find extraordinary bravery to save their hometown.

Review

" Kgwakgwe Hills feels like more than a backdrop. The caves, old mining equipment, sudden storms, dark forests, and abandoned buildings give the story a strong sense of place, and I could often feel the damp air and darkness closing around the children. The Botswana setting also gives this children's mystery adventure its own identity."- Literary Titan.
