The grandson of a prominent apartheid military doctor is kidnapped and murdered. The severed testicles of the grandson are sent to the grandfather as a message-a message that reminds the retired doctor of his past involvement at 1 Military Hospital. The body of a transsexual man is found, shot through the head execution style, on a deserted beach in Port Elizabeth. A transsexual woman is found mutilated and near death in her high-security flat in Hatfield, Pretoria. Ayesha Mansoor is an investigator for the Special Investigations Unit, a high-profile crime-fighting unit whose task it is to investigate significant cases. When Ayesha gets an early morning phone call from the Director of the Unit to come to a gruesome crime scene in Hatfield, nothing prepares Ayesha for returning to her role as a lead investigator in the job that cost her her marriage. The plot ends in a tragic twist which reflects the current state of South Africa, its legal system and our views on what constitutes a victim. A tale of revenge, acceptance, pain and weight of expectance from our families and society. This book is loosely based on alleged transgender operations that took place under the former South African Defence Force from the 1970s to the mid 1980s.
