About this book:

Wisani Maluleke is studying at Wits and juggling three jobs to keep the lights on while caring for her bedridden mother and her younger brother. Life in Soweto has made her tough and resilient, but she’s stretched to breaking point until her research project leads her to the Bafokeng brothers, heirs to the feared Marashea underworld.

At the heart of this brotherhood is Mohapi Mofokeng: broody, commanding, and dangerous. 

Set in Soweto and Lesotho.
