Jack Grant is a young South African journalist with a freshly tarnished reputation. While he is licking his wounds, he is contacted by a stranger. Siyabonga Mabena is dying in a Johannesburg hospital. He promises Jack a series of stories that will change his life. A mix of curiosity, selfishness and a nothing-left-to-lose attitude encourages Jack to listen. The dying man describes a series of gruesome and horrific crimes. Is Mabena simply a twisted old cynic looking for a final flurry of attention, or is there something darkly significant in the way the stories hang together?

Murray Hamilton was born in Johannesburg, South Africa, in 1981. He attended King Edward VII High School for boys and then Rhodes University in Grahamstown, graduating with majors in Economics, Management and English. Following university, Murray spent five years in London working in the financial sector as a project manager. After six months of travelling through Australasia, he returned to Johannesburg in early 2010, at which time he partnered with his father on a few small business ventures. Late in 2013, after a brief stint in the advertising sector, Murray decided to step away from formal employment in order to pursue his passion for writing. Murray’s writing draws inspiration from circumstances and events the world over, whilst paying particular attention to the unique contexts and conditions prevalent in his home country of South Africa.
