Do Not Disturb

Michela Wrong’s Do Not Disturb is a gripping account of political intrigue, betrayal, and authoritarianism in Rwanda. Focusing on the assassination of Patrick Karegeya, a former intelligence chief turned dissident, Wrong unravels the complex history that positioned Rwanda as both a post-genocide success story and a tightly controlled state. Her reporting is fearless and meticulous, revealing a world of secrecy, propaganda, and brutal reprisals. Wrong challenges the dominant international narrative around Rwanda’s leadership, offering a far more troubling picture. The book reads like a political thriller while maintaining journalistic integrity — tense, revealing, and deeply courageous.
