Frecky | 2 comments I have very fuzzy memories but boy did this book leave an impression. I'd have been about 10, so reading it around 1998 or so. It was set I think in Botswana (though not entirely sure), in the (then-)future, and I believe involved the young protagonists trying to stop some sort of organised adult baddies who were using magic masks that take people over (links to animals depicted by masks/spiritual possession o some kind); feel like it involved hyenas and/or baboons - both v scary. I've tried everything recommended to find it and no luck so far, have been trying to find it for years!
