A wonderfully warm love story set in contemporary Kenya - timeless, funny, clever and utterly charming. Its warmth and humour will appeal to fans of The No 1 Ladies' Detective Agency. Set in Nairobi, the novel introduces a very loveable hero. Mr Malik is a little overweight, a little short and has a rather alarming comb-over but he has the warmest heart and is hugely courageous and modest to boot.
Mr Malik has fallen in love with Rose Mbikwa, the leader of his Tuesday morning bird walk. He has been plucking up courage for weeks to ask Rose out but is thwarted by the appearance of his nemesis. Harry Kahn is the bully from his school days, good looking, witty, rich and horribly flash. Who will ask Rose out? A wager is set - whoever spots the most birds in the week will ask Rose to the hunt ball.
