City of Saints & Thieves
by Natalie C. Anderson
Tina and Kiki were orphaned children in Kenya. Kiki lives at a convent school whereas Tina lives the rebel life in Sangui City as a thief and member of the Goondas, a street gang. Tina sneaks in to briefly visit her sister every Friday, which is their only remaining contact. Tina and Kiki were orphaned when their mother was killed in the mansion where she worked as a servant. Tina and their mother came to Kenya as refugees from the Congo whereas Kiki was born in Sangui City out of wedlock with their mom's master. One of Tina's missions with the Goondas was to break into their former residence, Mr., Mrs. and Michael Greyhill's house, to steal electronic files in order to destroy Mr. Greyhill's life as Tina is convinced that it was Mr. G that killed her mother. However, unexpectedly, Michael (Tina's former best friend, pre-murder) was home when she broke in and took her captive. Michael does not believe that his father committed the murder despite Tina's commitment to proving that he did. They decide to band together to prove who killed Tina's mom (with Michael hoping to exonerate his father and Tina hoping to prove it was in fact Mr. G). This mission takes them back to Tina's home country to discover more about her and her mother's past.
