## Synopsis (in-house rewrite)

A Nairobi midday sun bleaches over a charity hospital’s corrugated roof. A British diplomat collects his wife’s scattered files. Quiet rows of geraniums mark another kind of digging.

When the diplomat’s wife turns up dead, every petal hides a thorn.

Meirelles’ tense mosaic slices through polite corridors into lethal soil.

**Mood tags**: bittersweet, gut-punch, paranoid, raw
