Faces Of Youth
A novel; a crime mystery, a family saga in the post-genocide Rwanda
After Carlos learns that the French lady he used to play piano for is his paternal grandma, he reads in the news that his half-brother, David, has been shot dead while trying to escape prison. Carlos boards the next flight to Kigali, regretting having left his half-siblings in post-genocide Rwanda after the death of their mother.
In a quest to pay his last respects to David, Carlos discovers the intriguing world his brother, who was called Badguy by his friends, lived in. He decides to investigate the circumstances that led to David’s death, but he needs the support of their half-sister, Celine, a successful model who won the Miss Rwanda competition in 2000.

Hearts Among Ourselves
A novel of love and hatred in the post-genocide Rwanda
Karabo has survived the 1994 genocide against the Tutsi that claimed the lives of her father and sisters. Now she is left alone among the wounded hearts of Rwanda, and she doesn’t know where her mother is.
When Karabo goes to live with her paternal uncle, a colonel in the new army, she meets Shema, another genocide survivor, and one of her uncle’s young escorts. Shema’s charm is appealing, and Karabo wants to surrender her heart to him, but it’s complicated — Shema knows only a part of her story.
Hearts Among Ourselves is a story of love, hatred, and where they intersect. Karabo and Shema, both grieving orphans, grow up in a torn society — caught between the world of the living and the dead, and the conflict between the Hutus and the Tutsis.
Some say love is like water — it flows with everything on its way. Will Karabo and Shema be swept up in its current or tossed to the shore?

Mioyo Miongoni Mwetu
Riwaya ya mapenzi na chuki baada ya mauaji ya kimbari nchini Rwanda
Swahili translation of Hearts Among Ourselves
Karabo amepona mauaji ya kimbari dhidi ya Watusi mwaka 1994 ambayo yaliyatwaa maisha ya baba yake na wadogo zake. Sasa ameachwa peke yake miongoni mwa mioyo iliyojeruhiwa nchini Rwanda, na hafahamu mahali alipo mama yake.
Karabo alipokwenda kuishi na baba yake mkubwa, ambaye ni kanali kwenye jeshi jipya, anakutana na Shema, mhanga mwingine wa mauaji ya kimbari akiwa miongoni mwa walinzi vijana wa baba yake mkubwa. Tabasamu la Shema linamtetemesha, na Karabo anataka kuusalimisha moyo wake kwake, lakini mambo yanakuwa magumu — Shema anafahamu sehemu tu ya hadithi yake.
Mioyo Miongoni Mwetu ni simulizi ya mapenzi, chuki, na namna vinavyoingiliana. Karabo na Shema, wote wakiwa yatima wanaoomboleza, wanakulia kwenye jamii iliyochanwachanwa — ikitekwa katikati ya ulimwengu wa walio hai na wafu, na migogoro baina ya Wahutu na Watusi.
