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.

His sense of justice outraged by the death of a Black friend, white South African schoolteacher Ben Du Toit searches for the truth and challenges the assumptions on which his racist society is founded.

Industry Reviews
"...[A]lthough there's a strong feeling of deja vu about [this novel] it is still, in parts at least, a book of great power. This power...comes from the urgency of what Brink has to report..."
New Statesman - Blake Morrison (10/05/1979)

"Andre Brink is simply not a 'great' writer; but he's an urgent, political one and an Afrikaner other Afrikaners can't ignore."
Washington Post Book World - Eric Redman (01/20/1980)
