One Reviewer Notes:
This fast-paced, well-written thriller combines little known contemporary history of the ongoing war in South Africa with today's drug scene in the Los Angeles area. The author uses a powerful descriptive narrative and a keen understanding of people caught up in extreme circumstances to move the reader at a fast clip through this entertaining tale of suffering and redemption.
