Publisher's Summary

Please note: this title contains challenging themes, which some listeners might find upsetting.

It was never meant to be like this. Sabotage, yes. Propaganda, yes. All of that and more - but not this. Not murder.

As greed and corruption taint the optimism of a nation, the political becomes deeply personal for former childhood friends Lindi and Kagiso. 

Their beloved home country, South Africa, is rapidly turning into a powder keg, as nations fight for ownership of its land and resources. With the murder of one of the nation’s bright young hopes, the fuse is well and truly lit. 

As the hunt for his killer intensifies, Lindi and Kagiso come together to protect the land and people they love, even as events are set in motion that no one - least of all they - can control.
