In Brother Michael & Kola: In a village, just outside the city limits of Nairobi, Kenya, Brother Michael, otherwise known as Erich Braun, stood outside of a dilapidated prison shrouded in heavy foliage. The time on his wristwatch indicated 6:30 p.m. and shadows were growing longer. It remained hot and humid. Per gathered intelligence, it was passed the usual last feeding time for the day and everyone, he thought, should be passive. His hand dripped with sweat from his brow.
