Berg, the African wind, looks down peacefully on the plains below. Yet he is unaware that Tumbili, the baboon, has found a rare giant ruby mango. The greedy monkey wants to eat it all for himself, but he is tricked into swapping the mango for a secret that only Nuki the bee knows. Word quickly spreads about the delicious secret, and Berg wakes to find that all of the animals have gone. Perhaps Mambo the evil crocodile can tell Berg where all of the animals are? Nuki must own up to his mistake in letting the secret slip, and then learn how to defend the secret in the hive. Can little Nuki find a way to protect the precious content meant only for Berg?

People queuing for a lunchtime show witness a road-rage incident--a near-homicidal attack which changes the lives of everyone involved: the wife of an unscrupulous property developer, a crime writer, a washed-up comedian. Jackson Brodie, ex-army, ex-police, ex-private detective, is also an innocent bystander--until he becomes a murder suspect.
