Publisher Description
Ian Devoss and Thabo Buyeni are members of the South African Special Forces on a mission in the war-torn Central African Republic in 2013. Through circumstances beyond their control they become involved in the smuggling of arms and illicit diamonds. They experience betrayal and murder, but also camaraderie and friendship of the highest order. After demobbing, they continue in this scene in order to retrieve a very large parcel of uncut diamonds and return it to its owner, but also to take revenge on those who betrayed them and killed four of their comrades. After having fought militias and bandits in the CAR, they now add organized crime to their deadly adversaries. Thabo and Ian are not squeaky clean characters; they are highly trained soldiers and are ready to kill if this is required. But they are not bad people either; they have their own set of values and their own moral compass. They are always prepared to stand up for their own rights and the rights of those who are close to them. The action moves between the Central African Republic, South Africa, Namibia, Cameroon and London.
Ian Devoss is also torn between the love for his high school sweetheart and his obligations to his friends and comrades.
