Walk At Midnight

I am unleashed from my mother's womb while she is choosing tomatoes at Ralphs. My birth is one of her favourite stories to tell.' This is how the reader is introduced to Jane, the main protagonist, in Alex van Tonder's new novel, A Walk at Midnight.

Jane is a complicated character who readers will empathise with as the novel moves between past and present, revealing some very dark secrets. Secrets that daren't be spoken of. Van Tonder's wit, sarcasm and sharp characterisations make for compelling reading.

Her Twitter bio states, `All that we see and seem is but a screen grab from someone else's WhatsApp', and in this carefully crafted psychological thriller, all is not what it seems. A `griplit' novel at its best, Alex van Tonder captures domestic suspense at its finest.
