Fury and Revenge in Cape Town

With the student-led revolution as a back drop, this story focuses on one man's revenge and another man's sacrifice. A third, Detective Adams, has a case to close before he retires. Over the course of the novel, the lives of these characters become entwined as the despair of the black community reaches boiling point. A confronting read but one that reminds us of the brutality of the Apartheid years in South Africa.
