Mystery
Finding a child's mutilated body in a ditch, Detective Harry Mason begins to investigate what appears to be the work of a serial killer. Or, could it be the work of a cult leader attempting to make "medicine" from children's' body parts? Harry sets out on a trail of discovery into the deep forests of South African myth and legend. His partner, Jacob Tshabalala, thinks this is the work of a true witch, and is forced to reconcile with his identitiesβas a cop, and a tribesman. Their friendship and partnership is pushed to the edgeβand then a second murder occurs. Harry's discoveries, combined with the work of a young reporter, unite and lead them ever deeper into a chilling spiritual underworld in the slums of Johannesburg, where money, superstition and fear reign supreme. But their enemies will stop at nothing to protect their bloody harvests.
