About this listen

Uiteindelik is dié blitsverkoper nou ook as luisterboek beskikbaar! Om 05:36 hardloop die vrou teen die hang van Leeukop. Sy is jonk, beeldskoon, Amerikaans - en beangs. Sy word soos ʼn dier gejag deur mans wat net ure gelede haar beste vriendin se keel afgesny het.Om 05:43 bel hulle vir speurder-inspekteur Bennie Griessel wakker. Hy moet kom, ʼn jong meisie se lyk lê langs St. Martini, die Lutherse kerk bo in Langstraat. Die vorige aand nog het hy gedink dit gaan vir hom ʼn spesiale dag wees: Die begin van ʼn nuwe era in sy loopbaan, as mentor van ʼn groep jong swart en bruin speurders. En hy verwag nuus oor sy bevordering.‘Kaptein Bennie Griessel'. Dit klink vir hom reg.Behoort ʼn redelik normale dag te wees. Tot sy jong span polisiemense begin stry, baklei, struikel. Met die kerkmoord. Met die middeljarige, alkoholis-vrou wat haar man, ʼn groot gees in die Afrikaanse musiekbedryf, twee keer met sy eie pistool deur die hart geboor het. Met die soektog na die Amerikaanse toeris. Terwyl die diplomatieke telefoonlyne vuurwarm gebel word en selfs die Minister begin druk toepas, sodat die hele mentor-ding soos mis voor die son verdwyn en Griessel self moet inklim om die gemors te probeer red.Om nie eens te praat van sy persoonlike probleme nie. Sy bankrekening lyk sleg, hy stoei nog met die dranklus, sy vervreemde vrou Anna bel uit die bloute en sê vanaand is die aand dat hulle oor die toekoms moet gesels. Weet sy van die 26-jarige rekenaartegnikus met die aansienlike borste wat hy gisteraand, in ʼn oomblik van swakheid, op sy sitkamerbank beetgekry het?Boonop kondig sy vriend en kollega Mat Joubert aan dat hy die SAPS gaan verlaat, en dan bel sy seun Fritz met die nuus dat hy klaar is met skool, hy gaan kitaarspeler word in ʼn rock-groep met die naam van ‘Wet & Orde'.En dan, net wanneer hy op die punt staan om die Amerikaanse meisie te red, skiet hulle vir Bennie Griessel. Reg in die hart.Redelik normale dag, jou tipiese dertien uur van Suid-Afrikaanse wetstoepassing.

My first Afrikaans audiobook!!
I have not read or listened to Afrikaans book for at least 35 years!!! I was certainly blown away by the story and the narrator was brilliant and keep me intensely!!
I was really enjoying the Afrikaans taal and the typical mix of English words and Kaapse Afrikaans. I live in Cape Town and as the story enfolded I could see Tableview Mountain and Lions Head in my imagination and see heard and smell Long Street.
A well written and researched story!

Brilliantly Executed
