The undisputed champion of South African crime, Wilbur Smith, has written a novel that has been awarded the Financial Times Book of the Year 2022. The book, titled "The Dark Flood," follows the story of detectives Benny Griessel and Vaughn Cupido, who are demoted, exiled from the elite Hawks unit, and dispatched to the leafy streets of Stellenbosch. Working on a missing persons report on student Callie de Bruin is not the level of work they are used to, but it is all they get. However, the case takes a dangerous and deeply disturbing turn.

Stellenbosch is a beautiful city, but its economy has been ruined by one man: Jasper Boonstra. Boonstra and his gigantic corporate fraud have crashed the local property market, just when estate agent Sandra Steenberg desperately needs a big sale. Bringing up twins and supporting her academic husband, Sandra is facing disaster. Then, she gets a call from Jasper Boonstra, the fraudster, sexual predator, and owner of a superb property worth millions.

For Sandra, the stakes are high and about to get way higher. For Benny Griessel, clinging to sobriety and the relationship that saved his life, the truth about Callie can only lead to more trouble. The book is taut with intrigue, murder, and suspense, exploding with action and excitement. It is a masterpiece from the author of "Trackers" and "The Last Hunt."

One of the best crime writers on the planet, Wilbur Smith, has once again delivered a novel that is sure to captivate readers. "The Dark Flood" is a must-read for anyone who loves crime fiction and is looking for a thrilling and suspenseful story.
