African Chess by Frank Graves is a newly updated and revamped
conspiracy, adventure thriller originally published in 1990. Recent
events in South Africa such as Nelson Mandela's Death, Oscar
Pistorius's Trial, Shrien Dewani's Extradition for Murder, 16,259
Murders in 2012/13 and Epidemic Corruption have all helped to
heighten attention and draw in a lot of focus on that country.
African Chess - The Story Michael and Robert born at exactly same
time and place at a remote hotel in one of South Africa's most
beautiful regions are treated as equals until they grow up. Robert
demands equality and falls foul of the dreaded South African police
when he joins the African National Congress (ANC) as a freedom
fighter. Both flee to England to escape and at Oxford Robert finds
more racism. When the security chief Dirk tries to kill them,
Robert is helped by his white brother Michael and beautiful cousin
Sharon. Their family business empire gives him certain protection.
He learns to wheel and deal on London's commodity markets and uses
this financial strength to fight back at the apartheid system.
African Chess is relentless suspense, with move upon countermove
until final checkmate. Michael Roberts - Michael, born into
coloniest white society in South Africa, uses all the trappings of
his inherited wealth in South Africa and England. Robert Molefe -
born at exactly the same time and place as Michael. The crucial
difference between them, is that he is black and demands equality
with his white brother. Dirk Lemmer - Dirk is a South African
killer, who will stop at nothing to keep his country safe from
threat. He follows Freedom Fighters worldwide to achieve this goal.
Sharon Roberts - Michael's exciting first cousin, also his lover.
She manipulates whatever she wants; from whoever she wants; by any
means; in her business empire Graves has now completed the rewrite
