Aprašymas

Local and international threats become perilously entwined in Scorpio, the tautly constructed thriller from master of the form Deon Meyer, as Detectives Benny Griessel and Vaughn Cupido race against time to uncover a plot that threatens global politics at the highest level . . .

Newly reinstated as captain, Benny Griessel is assigned the case of a private eye crushed under a BMW in his garage. It looks a lot like suicide. But Benny's partner, Vaughn Cupido knew the deceased. He's saying it's murder, and he wants in on the investigation.

Benny would love to have his help, because the case is going nowhere. But Vaughn is stuck investigating the arson of a remote shepherd's hut. Surely, this is a frustrating waste of his considerable talents?

Until a caravan explodes on a nearby farm, and the identity of the body drives the media into a feeding frenzy just a week before an international security forum comes to town. Suddenly, both cases are burning red hot - and the flames could consume more than Griessel and Cupido's careers . . .
