BLOOMING VALLEYS, BLEEDING EARTH
Nothing has been able to draw Captain Pieter Strauss home to South Africa's Elgin Valley. Since an argument sixteen years ago, he and his father Zef have hardly spoken a word to each other. Then the body of a young activist who had declared war on the white farmers is found in the old water reservoir on Strauss' farm. The local police have already arrested a suspect: Zef Strauss. Pieter rushes to his father's aid from Cape Town, even though he himself is not convinced of his father's innocence. He quickly gets caught in a web of old conflicts, desperate riots and bloody murders. The second case for Captain Pieter at the Cape of Lost Hope.
Long-awaited sequel to Deadly Mother City - Captain Pieter's most personal case.
Reviews:
A picturesque region, the social frictions of a rainbow nation, a thrilling murder case and the troupe of the special unit Valke, dear from Deadly Mother City, have combined to a thriller with high entertainment value.-starred review.
