On 18 December 1995 Bushie Engelbrecht assumed duty as head of the South African Police Services new Special Investigations Unit, established earlier that month to deal with high-profile crimes across the country. Two weeks later he was on his way to KwaZulu-Natal to lead an investigation into the Christmas Day massacre at Shohashohane, an event that not only drew unprecedented media attention but also highlighted the simmering tensions between the IFP and the ANC in KwaZulu-Natal.

In A Christmas to Remember he describes his work with the Special Investigations Unit. While focusing principally on the Shohashohane massacre and the trial that followed the investigation, he also covers, among other things, his teams investigations into the murder of lawyer and ANC supporter Griffiths Mxenge, and Sifiso Nkahindes alleged involvement in the Richmond killings. Nkahinde was assassinated a week before this hook went to press.

Both praise and criticism have been heaped on Bushie Engelbrecht in the media and elsewhere. Here he gives his own first-hand account of events, describing himself as a man who has put everything in his life second to finding the perpetrators of the atrocities he has been called in to investigate.
