520 1 $a"In February 1990, assailants murdered Kenya's distinguished minister of foreign affairs and international cooperation, Robert Ouko. The horror of the attack, the images of his mutilated and burned corpse, and the revelations of the pressures, conflicts, and fears he faced in his last week focused national and international attention on the extent of government corruption during the Moi era. The story of a death foretold, this book examines the multiple and unfinished investigations into the crime."--Jacket.
