Martin Steyn | Akateeminen Kirjakauppa

A dark, intriguing, and satisfying tale with strong characters.

--Kirkus (Starred Review)

They find her body in the veld near Cape Town, South Africa. A teenager. She's not the first. Recently widowed Detective Jan Magson has to look mothers and fathers in the eye. Has to answer their questions. He can't. He can't even answer his estranged son's questions about how his wife died. Alone with his pistol at night, a good man faces his inner darkness.
