Ch1: Loving the prose so far. Lots of charming, tactile turns of phrase and imagery– "But let me tell you the tale before it goes cold." Main character seems like a big chiller who just wants to drink his palm wine. Real as hell! First mention of a bluebird...seems like it has kicked off the conflict of the story. What year is it? Is Ghana still under colonial rule? Who is the woman? A tourist? A colonist?

Really enjoying it so far. Feels like the 90s or 2000s? I miss the hunter but the new MC Kayo seems like a nice fella. I'm sure the two will meet at some point. An interesting mystery is unfolding! I can't wait to drink a Guinness in Accra

Some of the speech sounds distinctly Ghanaian based on speech I've heard. Repetition of words for emphasis, "plenty" instead of "a lot of"
