Synopsis

Bennie Griessel may be losing his battle with alcohol but he still knows enough to head up the police team tracking 'Artemis', a vigilante killer who targets child murderers. The killer is in fact Thobela Mpayipheli, a former freedom fighter robbed of everything by the murder of his son. And when Griessel's daughter is kidnapped, his world and Thobela's converge towards a devastating climax...

Reviews and Press Quotes

Guardian

“If you want a glimpse of the soul of the new South Africa, Meyer is your man.”

Karen Meek, Euro Crime

“Devil's Peak is absolutely absorbing. Deon Meyer gives the reader a look at modern South Africa and the tensions that exist. It's an intricately woven tale which lingers in the mind...
As well as being well written, it is splendidly performed by Saul Reichlin. Reichlin is also South African and his accent adds another layer of verisimilitude to the tale. He uses many different voices and it's easy to tell who is speaking and he's equally at home with the female voices.”

Times

“One of the sharpest and most perceptive thriller writers arounds.”

Content Advisory

(What's this?)

Whole Story Audio Books has developed a unique system to guide you on the level of explicit content in our audio books. The system is applied against our titles to consistently rate levels of explicit language, sex and violence.

We consider not only frequency of content type but also the context: for example, strong language in a humorous setting is different from aggressive use of strong language.

Whilst there will always be subjectivity and different individuals views on this matter, we hope that you will find our content guide useful if these criteria form part of your selection process when choosing your next audio book.

  • Violence: Moderate
  • Sex: Moderate
  • Language: Strong
