  Detective Griessel must solve a cold case to stop a shooter in this thriller from the acclaimed South African author.   Two police officers have been shot, and the Cape Town homicide department has received emails from the shooter alleging the cover-up of an unsolved murder. If the cold case isn’t reopened immediately, the shooter’s carnage will continue.   Now Det. Capt. Benny Griessel is out to solve the crime in question: the murder of an ambitious lawyer stabbed to death in her luxury apartment. Unfortunately, there’s no apparent motive, forensic evidence, or leads.   As Griessel races to piece together an investigation with nothing to go on and his colleague, Capt. Mbali Kaleni, attempts to locate the shooter, a third cop becomes the victim of another barrage of bullets. The shooter is growing bolder by the day, and it’s only a matter of time before Griessel ends up in his sights . . .   “What makes Meyer such a national treasure—and as good as anyone in the world—is that even if you have no knowledge or interest in South Africa’s history or present, his books are compelling page-turners.” —The Times (London)   “Superior prose and characterization . . . reminiscent of Peter Lovesey at his twistiest.” —Publishers Weekly   “Sleekly done crime fiction layered with the cultural complexities of the new South Africa.” —Booklist

  Four years ago, a young heiress survived an attack that claimed the lives of both her parents. The crime made headlines all over Los Angeles, both for the vicious nature of the killings and the seemingly random nature of the attack: nothing was stolen, and the van Aust family had no obvious enemies. Melia van Aust fled the city soon after the murders—which were never solved—but her brother Jasper has not been seen since. After a childhood spent in the shadow of her famous parents, Rainey Hall understands dysfunctional families. She still hasn’t recovered from a tragedy that tore her own family apart six years earlier. It's part of why she started her own private investigation agency—to aid victims of crimes that might otherwise go unsolved. When Melia returns to LA and moves back into her family home, someone begins sending her increasingly violent messages that allude to her parents' murders. She hires Rainey to track down the culprit and find her missing brother. Touched by their similarities, Rainey feels compelled to protect Melia, even as their relationship becomes more than professional. Soon, Rainey finds herself falling down the rabbit hole of Melia’s life. Her quest to find Melia’s stalker will bring her in contact with disgraced royals, seedy neighbors, violent ex-boyfriends, and former staff—each one with their own secrets. As the threats against Melia escalate and the two women are drawn together, it’s only a matter of time before another victim turns up...
