Now that we are here, I suspect he has actually been sent to fulfill another secret mission. I am trying very hard not to pick a fight about it, because after all, we are in paradise! Darcy finally confides that there have been robberies in London and Paris. It seems the thief was a member of the aristocracy and may have fled to Kenya. Since we are staying in the Happy Valley—the center of upper-class English life—we are well positioned to hunt for clues and ferret out possible suspects.\u003cbr\u003e\n  \u003cbr\u003e\n Now that I am a sophisticated married woman, I am doing my best to sound like one. But crikey! These aristocrats are a thoroughly loathsome sort enjoying a completely decadent lifestyle filled with wild parties and rampant infidelity. And one of the leading lights in the community, Lord Cheriton, has the nerve to make a play for me. While I am on my honeymoon! Of course, I put an end to that right off.\u003cbr\u003e\n  \u003cbr\u003e\n When he is found bloodied and lifeless along a lonely stretch of road, it appears he fell victim to a lion. But it seems that the Happy Valley community wants to close the case a bit too quickly. Darcy and I soon discover that there is much more than a simple robbery and an animal attack to contend with here in Kenya. Nearly everyone has a motive to want Lord Cheriton dead and some will go to great lengths to silence anyone who asks too many questions. The hunt is on! I just hope I can survive my honeymoon long enough to catch a killer. . . .\u003cbr\u003e\n      Review      \u003cbr\u003e\nPraise for Love and Death Among The Cheetahs\u003cbr\u003e\n“An appealing addition to the Royal Spyness mystery series, with hints of the political upheavals that lie ahead.”—\u003cbr\u003e\nBooklist\u003cbr\u003e\n  \u003cbr\u003e\n “Bowen provides more social commentary than usual in this lighthearted series, revealing the careless bigotry and racism of the aristocratic Brits in Kenya, and the tale is all the better for it.”—\u003cbr\u003e\nKirkus Reviews\u003cbr\u003e\n“Rhys Bowen just keeps on going.

I can hardly believe it. We've been married three whole days now and frankly I haven't found much time for writing in my diary. We seem to have been awfully busy. . . .\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\"You know what I really fancy right now?\" I sat up, almost banging my head on the roof of the small cabin of our houseboat.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nI looked down at Darcy, who was lying beside me. Lying naked beside me, actually, but with a sheet draped discreetly over the important bits. It was a hot and muggy afternoon and we had been taking a rest from more strenuous activities (it was, after all, the fourth day of our honeymoon).\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nDarcy opened his eyes slowly and they flashed with that naughty and sexy look I had always found so irresistible. \"Really? Again? Already?\"\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nI slapped his naked shoulder. \"No, silly. Not that. What I really fancy right now is a cucumber sandwich.\"\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\"But we don't have any cucumber. Or any fresh bread.\"\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\"Precisely.\" I sighed.
