The Witch Doctor's Wife is wonderful. You need to try it even if you don't read her Antiquities and Penn Dutch stories. This draws on Myers' early childhood memories as the daughter of missionaries in Congo. It is an intriguing story and full of different characters ~ some mystifying and some really likable. The story is a mystery and the setting is a small village where there are many Europeans, several African tribes represented, and a few Americans.
After The Witch Doctor's Wife you will be eager to read The Headhunter's Daughter. Several of the characters return to the same Congo setting.
