Dit was nog nie behoorlik dag nie toe Kaatjie Danster, haastig op pad Halte toe, die kind van die weemoed in die voetpaadjie voor haar gewaar. Tjoepstil het hy gestaan en luister na die wind. Sy het dadelik geweet: Druppeltjie du Pisanie, kind van Waterwyser du Pisanie en KensTillie Moolman, het die lewe vir die dood verruil. Maar hoe Druppeltjie onder in die boorgat beland het, dit weet niemand nie. En die af-arm magistraat wat nou, veertien maande later, kom ondersoek instel na die oorsaak van sy dood, torring verniet aan dinge wat verby is. Want Toorberg se mense – die lewendes en die dooies – ken van geheime wegbere. Net oor een ding het magistraat van der Ligt dit reg: hoe meer getuies daar is, hoe verder wyk die waarheid.

This novel is set in the Free State town of Excelsior from the 1970s to the time of political liberation in the 1990s. In the 1970s Excelsior was notorious for a series of across-the-colour-bar sex scandals involving white men - many of them pillars of the conservative Afrikaner establishment - and black women, some of whom bore mixed-race children as a result. Mda roots his story in this period and carries it through to the social and political revolution of the 1990s. Often lyrical and sensual, and sometimes bleak and shocking, the novel is always an acute and authentic reflector of small-town South Africa and its extraordinary mix of people in the years of high apartheid and in its untidy aftermath.
