Luna Stratman: The Mystery of Mogadishu

Cozy mysteries paperbacks new releases

Story synopsis

Unethical, honorable, or close enough, journalism is facing a big hurdle: grab the reader with whatever it takes. The challenge, in short, is to create the sensation that something is important.

Luna Stratman and her good friend Romina Artwick meet to solve the murder case of an Italian reporter in the Somalian capital of Mogadishu. Paola Fulci was to uncover a terrible truth on huge amounts of money for the trade of arms, shabby highway constructions, and toxic waste, but her investigation was cut short when she was shot dead in an ambush in front of the hotel she was staying.

Was the motive behind the murder inconvenient truth, or an answer to unscrupulous journalism?
