A search for the missing treasury of the Congolese government and its smugglers, as well as a missing friend who may be a killer, sends two searchers from Nairobi to the border of the Congo. If the searchers' cover is blown, they may become the hunted. Set in East Africa in the closing days of the British colonial system, Coffins from the Congo is based on a real happening.

About the author
Emilee Hines grew up in Virginia and was in graduate school at UNC-Chapel Hill when she was chosen for Teachers for East Africa, a project of the US State Department. She taught two years at a teacher training college in Kenya and traveled widely in the area each holiday opportunity. She has since returned to East Africa for three visits, and in 2022 she gave her daughter a trip to Kenya. Emilee especially likes elephants, and one of her main charities is the David Sheldrake Foundation for Animals, a group that rescues elephants orphaned by poachers and rears them to return to the wild.
She is the author off over three hundred short stories and articles, and has seventeen books in print on Amazon as well as having co-authored seven other books, which are now out of print.
