Solace

The body of a Muslim boy is found in a synagogue, mutilated in what looks like a ritual sacrifice. Inspector Eberard Februarie is called in to solve the case. News of the murder quickly becomes public, and a storm of religious violence threatens to engulf Cape Town. Eberard, however, suspects that the case is not as clear cut as it seems.

But can he prove this before the storm breaks? With Solace, Andrew Brown has written a gripping crime novel in which he explores the religious tensions that threaten to break our society apart.
