How can an enterprising newspaper reporter sell his Babji dolls when there’s a beheaded street youth, a Rave Messiah battling a berserk “God Squad,” and a conniving new editor to deal with? Especially when he’s suffering all the symptoms of dengue fever? Hakeem Jinnah is back and as politically incorrect as ever. The chain-smoking, headline-chasing hypochondriac is in a race to find a killer and help save his buddy Sergeant Graham’s career. But a bevy of She Demons bedevil him at each turn. Soon Jinnah is entangled in a cultic web that threatens his friends, his family, and his life.
Fast-paced, funny, and suspenseful, this is the second Mister Jinnah novel featuring the larger-than-life crime reporter. Just as in his debut adventure, Mister Jinnah: Securities, the flirtatious and always resourceful Jinnah has to use every ounce of his investigative genius to solve a crime … and make a few extra dollars on the side.

Humorous and Engaging Whodunit,
By
This review is from: She Demons: A Mister Jinnah Mystery (Paperback)
With the decapitation of a former drug dealer and police informant, crime reporter Hakeem Jinnah believes he's come across a big story, particularly after the investigating officer consults with him at the crime scene. It isn't long before Jinnah discovers that the murder might involve a cult led by the dynamic Lionel Simons. The cult, however, has made an enemy in the Reverend Peter Hobbes, leader of the God Squad, and when these two groups collide, sparks fly. When Jinnah's son, Saleem starts hanging out with cult members and Jinnah finds himself being scooped by the TV reporter he once mentored, sparks start flying in Jinnah's life as well.She Demons is a humorous and engaging whodunit that is all about human foibles and the cost of ambition. Author Dan Hauka has created a likeable, well-rounded protagonist in Jinnah: a funny, hypochrondriac out to make a buck and a name for himself, while trying to be a good family man. I enjoyed Jinnah so much that I can't wait to read more of this intriguing character.
