THE RIGHT LEG Oil, Guns & Water H. K. Kaseu
In Turkana, power flows not from the ballot - but from oil, guns, and water.
Rebecca Amuro left a secure government job for triple her salary and a title that sounded like progress. She told herself she was moving toward something. Toward scale, toward impact, toward a frontier where decisions actually mattered.
She is starting to understand what she agreed to.
At the edge of a desert locked behind barbed wire and a security chief who has kept the camp at yellow alert for over a year, Rebecca must translate between two languages that do not want to meet: the language of quarterly reports and risk mitigation, and the language of communities who were promised water, jobs, and dignity - and received documents instead.
The community has already come through the fence once. Two hundred people. Organised. They knew the patrol schedule.
They weren't wrong to come.
Loyalties fracture. Memory becomes currency. And the question is no longer who rules - but what must be sacrificed to survive.
The Right Leg is a literary thriller about extraction - in land, in power, and in the human soul.
For readers of Imbolo Mbue, John le Carré, and Petina Gappah.
Oil, Guns & Water - Book One.
