Sunday. Christmas Eve. There is a break-in at the Stables Estate in Pretoria East. Well-known businessman Lafras van Zyl is left for dead and his family has disappeared without a trace: Katerien van Zyl, acclaimed scuba diver with an American passport, and their children Willem and Cath. After six long weeks there are still no clues, and Captain AJ Williams has been summoned to solve the case, ASAP. Journalist Alex Derksen and photographer Ranna Abramson are on the trail of the seventeen-year-old Martina Buitendag. She went missing in Yeoville and all that’s left behind is a threadbare case with R20 000 in cash and a handful of family photographs. Two crimes. Too many secrets. Nowhere to hide.
