Publisher Description

Tollie Erasmus, an unsavory bank robber on the run, is hung from the neck until dead. Unfortunately, the execution was administered without the benefit of a South African judge or jury. Somewhere there's a killer who knows far too much about the hangman's craft, and Lieutenant Tromp Kramer and his Bantu assistant, Mickey Zondi, must find him before his trail of death continues.

"The plot in this one got a little tangled up, and at times the artful narration is confusing, but I appreciate that it makes me read more slowly. I'm loving this series set in 1970s apartheid South Africa."

— Charlotte (4 out of 5 stars)

About James McClure

He is best remembered as the author of the Kramer and Zondi police procedural series, which contained a not-so-subtle message to those overseas about the inadequacies of a society split so radically along racial lines.
