Barry James is detained in a quarantine facility in the blistering heat of the Great Karoo. Here he exists in two worlds: the discordant and unforgiving reality of his incarceration and the lyrical, snowy landscapes of his dreams.

He has cut all ties with his previous life, his health is failing, and he has given up all hope. All he has to cling to are the meanderings of his restless mind, the daily round of pills and the journals he reluctantly keeps as testimony to a life once lived. And then there’s an opportunity to escape.

But to escape what? And where to? Can there be a life to go back to? Is there still a world out there in the barren wasteland beyond the fence?

Hulle kry haar lyk in ’n veld. ’n Tienermeisie – verkrag, gemartel, vermoor. En sy’s nie die eerste een nie.

Adjudant-offisier Jan Magson moet die reeksmoordenaar vang. Hy moet die slagoffers se ma’s en pa’s in die oë kyk en hul vrae beantwoord, maar hy kan nie. Hy kan nie eens sy eie vrae beantwoord nie. Want agter hom lê daar ook ’n donker spoor ...

Kort voor lank haal die moorde hoofopskrifte en die gemeenskap eis antwoorde:

Hoekom trek die polisie nie die boosaard vas nie? Toe ’n ma ’n brief vir die koerant skryf en ’n pa ’n beloning uitloof, word dinge op ’n mespunt gedryf. Bevind Magson hom op nóg ’n dwaalspoor of is hy uiteindelik op die donker spoor wat hom na die ware antwoorde sal lei?

Donker spoor was blitsverkoperskrywer Martin Steyn se bekroonde debuutroman.

When the former assassin, Zikhona, wakes up next to a dead body in an affluent Johannesburg suburb, she knows of only one person who can clean up her mess, uncle Zenzele. The incident unravels ghosts of the past, forcing the Z Gang to crawl out of their Mozambican hideout.

It is not only Zikhona’s situation that is intricate but the gang’s wealth back home is threatened by the torching of their taxis. They are also about to lose their millions through the elaborate laundering syndicate of a murderous underworld mobster while also nursing a terminally-ill member.

Her marriage to a flamboyant Nigerian pastor hits the skids.

With fewer friends and desperate to save their millions, Zenzele is forced to tap deep into the reserves of old connections, where loyalties still hold.
