Why would a mathematics professor from Cambridge University, renting a holiday home outside Cape Town, require a false identity and three bodyguards? And where is he, now that they are dead? The only clue to the bodyguards' murder is the snake engraved on the shell casings of the bullets that killed them. Investigating the massacre, Benny Griessel and his team find themselves being drawn into an international conspiracy with shocking implications. It seems it is not just the terrorists and criminals of Britain and South Africa who may fear the Professor's work, but the politicians too. As the body count begins to spiral viciously, Benny must put his new-found love life aside and focus on finding the one person who could give him a break in the case: a teenage pickpocket on the run in the city. But Benny is not the only person hunting for Tyrone Kleinbooi . . . Relentlessly suspenseful, topical, hard-hitting and richly rewarding, COBRA is a superb novel from an author who is acclaimed around the world as a brilliant voice in crime fiction. English translation ??? K. L. Seegers. Originally published in Afrikaans in 2013 as Kobra by Human & Rousseau. (P)2014 Hodder & Stoughton

This novel kept me spell bound throughout. I usually don't care for series thrillers, but Meyer is able to keep each one fresh and unique. South Africa and his characters come to life. I wasn't fond of the ending, but it made sense in that particular story.
