The sins of the past come home to roost in the New South Africa in
the action-packed new novel from a master of the international
thriller. The bestselling author of Hold My Hand I'm Dying and
Roots of Outrage returns once more to the country he knows best -
South Africa - for his heart-thumping new thriller, filled with
political intrigue, courtroom drama and high adventure. Since the
historic 1994 elections brought in the New South Africa, Jack
Harker, a former operative for South African military intelligence,
has created a new identity for himself as a publisher in New York,
and a new life with writer and activist Josephine Valentine, who
knows nothing of his undercover past. But his world is suddenly
thrown into turmoil when he hears about the new Truth and
Reconciliation Commission, which offers amnesty to those who
confess to crimes committed during the dark days of Apartheid, and
prosecution to those who do not. If Jack tells the truth about
everything he was ordered to do in the service of his country, will
Josephine ever be able to forgive him? If he keeps quiet, will
former colleagues betray him? And will he even be given the choice?
His confession would implicate a lot of powerful people, and it
soon becomes clear that they will go to any lengths to ensure he
will never be able to testify.
