Bang Bang Bang

Nick Hern Books (RRP £9.99)

A thrilling adventure about two young human rights defenders in the Democratic Republic of Congo.

“You get a cook, a cleaner, a driver and you get paid. I’ll be watching out for you.”

For Mathilde, young and idealistic, it’s an induction into a life less ordinary. For the more seasoned Sadhbh it’s back to madness and chaos away from her lover, and London, and settling down – exactly as she likes it. While Mathilde lets off steam with a photographer and a spliff, Sadhbh has her own encounter: tea with a smart, brutal young warlord she’s investigating. Or is he investigating her?

Stella Feehily brings her trademark wit and emotional insight to this revealing look behind the public face of charities, journalists and NGOs.

“Wonderful writing. Stella Feehily’s best work to date”
