In Africa, men - and women - will risk all for the lure of gold.

Deep underground in the Eureka mine, South Africa's zama-zamas illegally hunt for gold. King of this brutal underworld is Wellington Shumba, a man who rules his illegal miners through fear of torture and death. Running Eureka's legitimate operation is former recce-commando, Cameron McMurtrie. When one of his engineers is taken hostage, Cameron does not hesitate to mastermind a dramatic rescue - and finish it off with a manhunt for Wellington. That is until corporate interference from the mine's Australian head office, in the shape of ambitious high-flyer Kylie Hamilton, gets in his way. Kylie is visiting South Africa supposedly to finalise a new mine on the border of the famed Kruger National Park, but instead, she and Cameron are forced into a partnership to fend off an environmental war above ground, and a deadly battle with a ruthless killer below.

Cameron and Kylie have become Wellington's prey. They must unite - their lives depend on it.

When eldest son Roman Carruthers is summoned home after his father’s car accident, he finds his younger brother, Dante, in debt to dangerous criminals and his sister, Neveah, exhausted from holding the family―and the family business―together. Neveah and their father, who run the Carruthers Crematorium in the run-down central Virginia town of Jefferson Run, see death up close every day. But mortality draws even closer when it becomes clear that the crash that landed their father in a coma was no accident and Dante’s recklessness has placed them all in real danger.

Roman, a financial whiz with a head for numbers and a talent for making his clients rich, has some money to help buy his brother out of trouble. But in his work with wannabe tough guys, he’s forgotten that there are real gangsters out there. As his bargaining chips go up in smoke, Roman realizes that he has only one thing left to offer to save his brother: himself, and his own particular set of skills.

Roman begins his work for the criminals while Neveah tries to uncover the long-ago mystery of what happened to their mother, who disappeared when they were teenagers. But Roman is far less of a pushover than the gangsters realize. He is willing to do anything to save his family. Anything.

Because everything burns.

Adriana vra Ranna en Alex om onder die dekmantel van joernalistiek die storie van ’n jong vrou onder haar beskerming te ondersoek. Dit bring hulle op die spoor van ’n ou misdaad – die verdwyning van ’n talentvolle jong kunstenaar wat in haar matriekjaar spoorloos verdwyn het. Die meisie se destydse kêrel en haar kunsonderwyser is verdink, maar die saak is nooit opgelos nie. ’n Foto van die meisie naby ’n aborsiekliniek in Johannesburg speel ’n kardinale rol. In die foto kyk sy oor haar skouer, asof sy bang is sy word agtervolg. Alex dek ook ’n storie oor ’n jong onwettige immigrant wat van vervolging in sy eie land gevlug het om ’n nuwe lewe in Suid­Afrika te maak. Maar xenofobie dreig om sy drome te verwoes. AJ Williams is op dertig kaptein in die polisie, maar sy veg om die stereotipering te oorkom wat haar bruin vel en geslag ontlok. ’n Foto van Ranna in Pretoria sit AJ op dié se spoor.

But in the thick of motherhood's exhausting early days, Blythe becomes convinced that something is wrong with her daughter-she doesn't behave like most children do. Or is it all in Blythe's head? Her husband, Fox, says she's imagining things. The more Fox dismisses her fears, the more Blythe begins to question her own sanity, and the more we begin to question what Blythe is telling us about her life as well.

But when life as they know it is changed in an instant, the devastating fall-out forces Blythe to face the truth. The Push is a tour de force you will read in a sitting, an utterly immersive novel that will challenge everything you think you know about motherhood, about what we owe our children, and what it feels like when women are not believed.
