The year is 1962. Young Lieutenant Tromp Kramer of the Trekkersburg Murder and Robbery Squad has been ordered up to Jafini, a small, dusty town in northern Zululand, to investigate the "hero's death" of the town's chief detective, Maaties Kritzinger—another Afrikaner maverick, and one with many secrets. Kramer finds himself increasingly identifying with the victim as the investigation proceeds. And then his path crosses that of Bantu Detective Sergeant Mickey Zondi, who is trying to locate a multiple killer whose summary execution will quiet the spirits of his ancestors. Despite the racial differences, the two men sense a kinship … one that might prove dangerous in rural South Africa in the year of Nelson Mandela's imprisonment.

Author Bio: James McClure
James McClure (1939–2006) was a noted journalist and author. He was born in Johannesburg, South Africa, but lived in England for well over the last half his life.
