Summary

" A brave and fascinating first novel...in the great tradition of Jeffrey Archer." - Rian Malan

Meet Jerome Michael Nossel. Known as Nossel to many, and as Comrade Golfer to those who know his history. Gutsy, passionate, vulnerbale, smart - and in trouble.

Nossel is adrift in the New Republic of self-enrichment and sordid power games, cut loose and betrayed by the very ones he helped bring to power. Then he stumbles upon a murder, and his obsessive mind and big heart won't let him walk away from the desire to find the truth. About murder, about power, about Nossel.

" A book that forced me to turn every page before finishing..." - Mandla Langa
