More about the book
"Jacob's Rest is a tiny town on the border between South Africa and Mozambique. It is 1952, and new apartheid laws have recently gone into effect. When an Afrikaner police officer is murdered, the powerful police Security Branch, dedicated to flushing out black communist radicals, preempts Detective Emmanuel Cooper's investigation. But Cooper isn't interested in political expediency and has never been one for making friends. Instead, he strikes out on his own, following a trail of clues that lead him to uncover shocking secrets." - Taken from cover p.4.
