Boek lyk vir my nog splinternuut en ongelees - 356 pg. >>> Tobela Tiny Mpayipheli, oud-KGB-sluipmoordenaar, ook bekend as Umzingeli (Die Jagter), het gedink hy het sy vorige lewe agtergelaat. Hy het vrede gevind, maar bevind hom skielik in n onmoontlike situasie. - Want lojaliteit is belangrik en hy moet nou binne 72 uur in Lusaka uitkom, anders sterf n ou vriend, n medestryder wat gyselaar gehou word. Maar die losprys wat hy saam met hom moet neem, is gevaarlik n hardeskyf met sensitiewe inligting. Die plaaslike intelligensiediens gaan alles in hul vermoe doen om hom te keer. En nou word jagter die prooi. Op n geleende BMW-motorfiets vat hy die lang pad. - Maar hoe verder hy vorder, hoe stywer span die net om hom. Spanning uit die boonste rakke; n boek wat geen leser sal kan neersit nie. >>> Deon Meyer is a South African crime fiction author and screenwriter. - A former journalist, advertising copywriter, Internet manager and brand strategist, Deon has published thirteen novels and two short story collections.
