Leo: the thrilling new novel from the author of major Netflix series Heart of the Hunter: Benny Griessel
Autor Deon Meyer Traducere de KL Seegersen Limba Engleză Paperback – 14 aug 2025
GRIESSEL AND CUPIDO ARE EXPECTING A QUIET LIFE
Detectives Benny Griessel and Vaughn Cupido remain on duty in beautiful Stellenbosch, but run-of-the-mill police work in a leafy university town famed for its vineyards is a far cry from their previous life in Cape Town fighting crime at the highest level. For now, Benny has more pressing things to worry about - it's the countdown to his wedding day on 12 June.
BUT THE PEACE IS ABOUT TO BE SHATTERED
When a student is found dead on a mountain trail, and the key suspect, a local businessman, is found murdered in what looks like a professional hit delivering a message - suffocated by fast-action filler foam sprayed down his throat - Griessel and Cupido both know this the work of professionals.
Benny also knows he needs a cool head to untangle this web of deceit, and to manage the incessant pressure. He needs to stay calm, focused - and sober. And it all needs to be wrapped up by 12 June.
THE CLOCK IS TICKING. AND CHAOS IS COMING...
