Perhaps straight into the blurb might be the best, as I've no idea what to expect.
From the Blurb:
Gregoire Nakobomayo, a petty criminal, has decided to kill his girlfriend Germaine. He's planned it for some time, but still, the act of murder requires a bit of psychological and logistical preparation. Luckily he's got a mentor to call on, the infamous serial killer Angoualima. The fact that Angoualima is dead doesn't prevent Gregoire from having lengthy conversations with him.
Opening Lines:
I have decided to kill Germaine on December 29. I have been thinking about this for weeks - whatever one may say about it, killing someone requires both psychological and logistical preparedness.
