6. VENGEANCE FROM THE PAST — SA POLICE SERIES
In the secluded heat of a South-West town, an enigmatic stranger steps off the train. His name is Anton Verwey, and he is not here for the scenery. He is back after ten years in hell, and he is here for revenge.
His target is Carl Meisner, the town’s affluent and respected mayor. But behind Meisner’s success lies a dark secret, a decade-old betrayal woven from illicit diamonds, stolen love, and a lie that landed Verwey behind bars while Meisner made off with the spoils. Verwey now demands his share, and he is prepared to do anything to obtain it.
His quest for justice, and his share of the fortune, unleashes a deadly game. The struggle drives the two men to the ominous Rheinplatz castle, a desolate fortress on the edge of the Namib desert, where an old map must reveal the location of the treasure at the mysterious “Point X”. The castle’s dark corridors become the stage for a violent confrontation, where the first blood is shed.
As the tension escalates, the sharp and intuitive Constable Reinhardt Fouche is placed on the case. Fouche quickly realises that this is not just a simple case. The town’s own police sergeant is acting nervously, and it is clear that the sins of the past are poisoning the present. Fouche is drawn deep into the web of deceit and danger, where he comes up against a ruthless and desperate man with nothing to lose. The hunt for the truth and the diamonds becomes a desperate race against time, forcing the players from the cold walls of the castle deep into the merciless Namib desert. In a world where loyalty has a price and every shadow can hide an enemy, the line between hero and villain blurs. Who will pay the ultimate price when revenge from the past comes to claim its final, bloody due?
