Bosambo of the River

The collection follows the escapades of Bosambo, an escaped convict who rises to local power, and the interventions of Commissioner Sanders as they confront taxes, rebellions, rival chiefs, and ritual customs along a contested river frontier. Episodes trace Bosambo's flight from servitude, his part in insurrections and political maneuvering, scenes of sacrificial practice and ambush, and the rise and fall of local potentates. Linked adventure tales mix violent incidents and local palavers to explore themes of authority, justice, and cultural friction in a volatile borderland.
