The Dark Flood by Deon Meyer
Something's rotten in the State of South Africa.
A frustrated Vaughn Cupido looks at Benny Griessel. "Benna, just explain one thing to me: Where's the logic? We live in a country with a huge crime rate, the SAPS has had the biggest brain drain and loss of experience in its history these past ten years, there's a helluva problem with corruption in said Service, and they let the country's two best former Hawks detectives search for a student on a binge weekend because his mobile was stolen. Where's the logic?"
"I've been thinking about that all weekend. There's a snake in the grass, Vaughn," says Griessel.
Someone shot warrant-officer Milo April at the Cape Town Waterfront. In cold blood. In broad daylight. And maybe a senior officer of the South African Police Services ordered the execution. And maybe it's connected to the mysterious letters warrant-officers Benny Griessel and Vaughn Cupido have been receiving. With hints of State Capture shenanigans.
But to their great frustration, they have to waste their precious time searching for a missing student, probably just another kid on a crazy weekend bender.
And mega-rich Jasper Boonstra, the notorious corporate swindler, asks Sandra Steenberg to sell Donkerdrif, the very, very expensive wine estate, on the quiet. Sandra, mother of two, wife to author Josef, needs the money badly. She is drowning in debt, stuck in a web of deceit. But the transaction goes awry fast, and now Griessel and Cupido are investigating her too.
As they slowly make progress, the detectives realize that the cases are connected by the darkest passion of all: Greed.
