Cape Town Uncovered takes a look at the darker underbelly of the Mother City. What goes on behind the glamour, once the veneers fall away? Not for the faint-hearted, the book documents individual accounts, in graphic detail, of illicit drug use, murder, violence, abuse and the vicious cycles that go hand-in-hand with a seedy underworld. How does one begin to remedy the situation? Is policing the problem? Or is it a lack of free will to exercise the ability to make informed choices?
