Synopsis: |
A Saturday in January, the start of summer in Cape Town, where the very public process of admission and forgiveness sets the scene for Mandela's new South Africa. Although the mood is one of truth and reconciliation, not everyone is ready to tell the truth.The murder of General Daniel Jackson precipitates a hunt for the secrets he didn't take to the grave, a dossier exposing the covert activities of an elite force, one willing to go to any lengths to keep their secrets hidden.Journalist Nate McFadden trades in political truths. His former girlfriend Geri Lennox deals in money, and Moses Kimbo, he's after the murderer of cousin Nancy. In a plot that tells the true story, of how South Africa sold chemical and biological warfare agents to Libya, and also links the US Treasury, global warming and a consignment of poisoned rain to here-and-now death and deliverance, Nate, Geri and Moses are sucked together through a labyrinth of chance and criminality towards their goals, following the losers to their ends and the victors to the largest proceeds-of-crime-fortune ever recycled.Ultimately, when the pages of Exculpation's fictional cladding are held inquisitively to the light, a watermark appears.Through the first story runs a second, telling of a single genesis for both the dissolution of the Soviet Union and the abolition of apartheid.Far-fetched? Yes, but it's true. |
