Natural History by Neil Cross
This powerfully intelligent novel opens with the mysterious poisoning of an elderly female chimpanzee in a grimly dilapidated ape sanctuary in Devon. But the linear path of a murder investigation becomes more elliptical when house husband Patrick remains at the sanctuary to mind his teenage children while his zoologist wife searches for endangered primates in Zaire (this conventional symbol of the dark heart of humanity freshly inflected by the overspill of refugees from Rwanda).
