Across the Red River by Christian Jennings
Christian Jennings arrived in Rwanda with an impossible mission: he had five days to track down the army officers and government ministers responsible for the slaughter of 850,000 people and persuade them to participate in a TV documentary about their crimes. Nothing in his past prepared him for the three and a half years that followed.
