Bertram Mitford 
A Frontier Mystery 

The mystery has to do with the murderous rites of the 'Brotherhood of the Dew, ’ a superstitious sect of the Zulus on the borders of Natal, who had a horrible way of sacrificing human beings in order to bring rain at times of drought. This is only discovered after the mysterious disappearance of two white settlers.
