Michael Stanley je autorskou dvojicou Michael Sears a Stanley Trollip. Ich detektívne romány, zasadené do Botswany, ktorú si obľúbili vďaka rozsiahlemu cestovaniu po južnej Afrike, predstavujú detektíva Kubua. Kubu, ktorého meno v jazyku Setswana znamená hroch, si získal prezývku vďaka svojej veľkosti a neústupnosti pri vyšetrovaní zložitých vrážd. Autorská dvojica majstrovsky prepletá napínavé zápletky s hlbokým vhľadom do miestnych tém, ako sú politická korupcia, dávne kriminálne prípady a snahy o nesmrteľnosť, čím čitateľom ponúka pútavý pohľad na tento fascinujúci región.
