Review: Violent Mystery with Some Insights About S. Africa
Rating: 3 out of 5
Date: 05 11, 2013
This very violent conflict between a journalist wrongly accused of killing his mixed race family and a violent warlord with AIDS reveals many of the sad stories of S. Africa where tribal traditions and modern life mix in deadly ways. The characters are interesting but developed with little or no empathy, so I cared little what happened to them as it went along. It has lots of violent action and shares some of the challenges of this changing nation, but with too much fascination with the pain and too little with the human stories.
