Synopsis
A novel set in Johannesburg in the aftermath of the 1976 Soweto riots. A black man in South Africa, detained by the police, dies under mysterious circumstances. A white friend of his investigates and comes inevitably into conflict with South Africa’s repressive political regime. The events are reminiscent of those surrounding the death of black nationalist Steven Biko in 1976.
