Synopsis

"The Border" is a racy drama set against the backdrop of southern Africa's border wars in the 1980's. This is a tale of intertwined lives; hatred, trauma and the horror of war forcing each to strangle some sense, some purity out of the world they now find themselves in while teetering on the border of their own sanity. An ordinary soldier fights for survival. A family torn apart by the brutality of war. Two women's struggle to overcome the horrors they have experienced at the hands of the terrorists. A power-hungry brigadier whose personal failures cause untold disaster for his family and for the soldiers in whose hands they place their lives. But among the death and dust Corporal Kent finds himself enigmatically drawn toward a woman recently widowed by the very insurgents he fights against.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

A. J. Brooks was asked to write an article on the South African involvement in the 1984 Operation Askari. Stan Monick published it as historical non-fiction on the history of the Transvaal Horse Artillery titled "Wherever Destiny Leads". The article was the catalyst for this, his first work of fiction.
