"This is a narration about the quest of a man for the meaning of his existence. He tells his story in the face of death and as such his quest is elevated, a search for the light. But in the background there are two other voices, of him as a child and as a young policeman. These two voices continually impinge on his elevated search and in a sense bring it back to earth. This anchors his narration in concrete, banal experience, even undermines it, and so gives concrete shape to a primitive human dilemma, namely being trapped between heaven and hell, between what a human is and what he would like to be"--Publisher's web site

"When a nightclub owner has the lover of his mistress killed by an eccentric assassin, he has to deal with the family of the murdered man, the Hartslief clan from Brixton. Elie Hartslief is the brain, Antie Engel with her soup kitchen and sixth sense the heart, cousin Boela the butcher the muscle, and Moks with his funky Mohican and weed biscuits the mouth. Elie has become respectable since he became the right-hand of Mr Morkel at Morkel Wealth, but the murder of Elie's brother forces the Hartsliefs to go into laager. Their opponents are the notorious Bogdan Petrescu and his killer for hire, Lood - a man who loves saxophone music and thinking up creative ways to kill people. Think Coen-brothers and Westerns in Brixton and Sandton. Karsten noir at its best."--Publisher's website : http://www.nb.co.za/Books/17379.
