A dark winter's evening. A lonely smallholding outside Johannesburg. A brutal shooting. The murder of solitary divorcee Annette Botha appears to be a botched hijacking, just another senseless crime in the surge of violence sweeping South Africa. With his career at stake, newly promoted police superintendent David Patel is desperate to get results on this case. When his ex-boss's daughter Jade de Jong arrives back in South Africa after an unexplained absence, she offers to help him with the investigation. Jade soon makes some troubling discoveries. Why did Annette hire a private detective a few days before she died? And why has the detective mysteriously disappeared? While Jade races to uncover the murderer's identity and crack open his chilling agenda, she has to keep her own secrets from David. The man who killed her father has just been released from jail. She has returned to South Africa to give him the death sentence he deserves. But Jade's plans are shattered when one of her trusted contacts betrays her. Worst of all, Annette's murderer remains one step ahead. He's planning his final coup, and this time, there are to be no witnesses.
