A gripping novel set against the backdrop of South Africa's tumultuous history. The story follows Jo, a journalist who returns to South Africa after ten years in the UK to cover the riots in Johannesburg's Alexandra township. Her estranged Afrikaner father, Nico, reappears and asks for her help to prove his innocence in the murder of a black man, abducted by the security forces decades earlier2.

As Jo and Nico embark on a road trip through South Africa, Jo begins to suspect that Nico knows more about the murder than he is letting on. The novel explores themes of justice, truth, loyalty, and the struggle to belong in a country grappling with its bloody past and forging a new democracy2.

It's a powerful and thought-provoking read that delves into the complexities of family, identity, and the search for truth.
