Waugh in Abyssinia by Waugh Evelyn

An arsonist is on a rampage - an abandoned nightclub is torched and the forensic evidence suggests it's the same arsonist that struck a school years before. Someone is killing the residents of local nursing homes. The flasher has finally made a mistake. A normal week in the life of Terry McGuire and his team as they work on several fronts to solve the crimes. But Terry will uncover something during the investigations that will shock him to his core.
Evelyn Waugh was born in Hampstead in 1903, second son of Arthur Waugh, publisher and literary critic, and brother of Alec Waugh, the popular novelist. He was educated at Lancing and Hertford College, Oxford, where he read Modern History. In 1928 he published his first work, a life of Dante Gabriel Rossetti, and his first novel, Decline and Fall, which was soon followed by Vile Bodies (1930), Black Mischief (1932), A Handful of Dust (1934) and Scoop (1938). Waugh travelled extensively and also wrote several travel books, as well as a biography of Edmund Campion and Ronald Knox. Other famous works include his Sword of Honour trilogy, and Brideshead Revisited (1945).
