Sinossi

3. THE DEADLY TRIANGLE - WANDERER DETECTIVE SERIES
 
In the shadowy underworld of Johannesburg, the merciless Johnny Bizante reigns from his billiard hall and restaurant. When he requires payment, he dispatches his henchmen, the hardened Jak Nasbir and the newly released Ore Pieters, to collect it, with or without violence. Their latest target is Ben Vorster, a man who apparently owes a thousand pounds and refuses to pay. Following a brutal assault in his luxury Hillbrow apartment, they leave Vorster for dead and vanish into the night.
 
But they are not alone. A chilling voice from the dark back seat of their car announces the presence of the legendary wandering detective, Obed de Swardt. To Nasbir, he is a myth, but to Pieters, he is a “devil” from his past. With cold composure and lightning-fast fists, De Swardt forces the two thugs to their knees and thus unravels the first thread of Bizante’s web.
 
The following day, tragedy strikes Ben Vorster. He is found dead in a car accident on the Pretoria road. The police rule it an accident, but his exquisite fiancée, Lana Myburgh, refuses to believe it. She knows Ben had a secret, a secret for which he may have been murdered. In her desperate search for answers, she hires the services of another renowned private detective, Hannes Verwey. While two separate investigations are underway, De Swardt follows his own, more dangerous path. His trail leads him deep into a deadly triangle of extortion, perilous secrets, and cold-blooded violence, where the powerful Johnny Bizante pulls all the strings and his victims are counted among the city’s elite. As the bodies begin to pile up, De Swardt realises he is fighting an enemy who knows no bounds and will eliminate anyone who dares to stand in his way, including the only woman who might hold the key to the mystery. Can De Swardt uncover the truth before another victim falls, and in a world where no one is who they seem to be, who can truly be trusted?

    Celebrities get away with murder. 
     
     
     
    Assistant District Attorney Jessie Black doesn't believe that. She believes the law applies to everyone, and that justice and truth prevail. 
     
     
     
    But according to veteran prosecutor Ned Ransom, it's exactly what happened six years ago, when hip-hop superstar Jurdel Frazier threw his wife off a fifteenth floor hotel balcony and was found not guilty by a starstruck jury. 
     
     
     
    Now history repeats itself. Police find the cold, dead body of Frazier's new girlfriend, and Jessie finds herself next to Ransom at the prosecution table. 
     
     
     
    But is this a second chance for justice, or something more sinister—and deadly? The more Jessie uncovers, the more she worries that this case is not what it appears. 
     
     
     
    And the person she begins to trust the least is the prosecutor sitting next to her.

    June 6, 1944. Allied forces hit the beaches of Nazi-occupied France. Among the countless lives shattered are those of five spirited women with starkly different lives. As the war reaches its tipping point, each of the women fight for the survival of themselves, their countries, and their way of life during one of the most pivotal days in history. 
    
    American expatriate Mildred, better known as Axis Sally, has a thriving career as a Nazi radio propagandist, but her conscience haunts her. Meanwhile, across the English Channel, young medical volunteer Theda is pushed to her limit as shiploads of casualties dock in Portsmouth. Closer to the front, intrepid Flora aids the French resistance while seeking out her vanished parents. Iron-willed Emilia has climbed the Gestapo ranks, but she is now bent on betraying them. Finally, dignified Adelaide’s faith is shaken when she is forced to quarter German soldiers.
    
    Now, during the most perilous twenty-four hours of their lives, all five women must summon courage they never knew they had as they confront the physical dangers of war alongside treacherous family secrets, heartbreak, and the ability to trust themselves. For these women, their inner strength is their only hope. But is it enough? How far can one person go for the things they believe in?
