Chaos unleashed.
A student's death in Stellenbosch mountain wasn't an accident.
A former special forces soldier killed as a message. To someone: "Keep your trap shut."
A corrupt politician's body found in the bunker on the sixtreenth green of the Arabella golf estate. With a mysterious message written in the sand.
A sensual game ranger, recruited as a honey trap for the biggest dollar heist in the country's history. And dark forces lurking in the halls of power trying to sabotage Benny Griessel and Vaughn Cupido's every move.
You need a cool head to untangle this web of deceit, to manage the incessant pressure. You have to be calm and focused. And sober.
But Benny Griessel's head isn't cool. He's worried. Anxious. And a little bit scared. Because he is getting married on 12 June, a date roaring down on him like a bullet train. And he isn't remotely ready for it.
Chaos is coming.

In this episode of Pagecast, Deon is in conversation with true-crime podcaster, freelance writer, and audiobook narrator Nicole Engelbrecht. Enjoy!
