South African crime fiction thriller: Dive into a riveting detective saga where danger lurks around every corner of Stellenbosch. Acclaimed as “the supremo of South African crime-writing fiction” by Peter James, this novel immediately throws you into a world where gritty police work meets chilling mystery.
Benny Griessel and Vaughn Cupido, once part of the elite HAWKS, now find themselves facing routine cases in a leafy university town—until a student is found dead on a mountain trail. With the stakes rising, the detectives must unravel a stubborn mystery that hints at dark secrets lurking beneath the surface.
Meanwhile, in the northern reaches of South Africa, a captivating wildlife guide is recruited by special forces soldiers to serve as a honeytrap in a dangerous multi-million-dollar heist that spirals tragically out of control. Back in Stellenbosch, the discovery of a local businessman’s murder—suffocated by a bizarre spray of fast-action filler foam—reveals that even professional hits carry a cryptic message.
As the investigation deepens, it becomes clear that the culprits may be hiding in plain sight—in government, within the police force, and among the criminals roaming the streets. With time ticking and personal stakes mounting (Alexa has even fixed the wedding date), Benny’s struggle to maintain his cool and sobriety transforms this into a deadly race against time.
Experience the relentless tension and intricate plotting of this South African crime fiction thriller that keeps you guessing until the very last page.
