Synopsis
Lemmer is a freelance bodyguard for Body Armor, a personal security company in South Africa. Lean, angry, violent, he is way down on the price list where the bargains are to be found.
Emma le Roux wants to find her missing brother, who supposedly died twenty years ago, but whom she is convinced she's seen on the news as a suspect in the recent killing of a witch doctor and four poachers. She hires Lemmer to watch her back when she goes looking for answers.
As le Roux and Lemmer look for clues in the Lowveld, it becomes clear someone wants to keep them in the dark. Someone who will go to any lengths to stop them asking questions. When they are attacked and almost killed, Lemmer decides to go after whoever is hunting them - against all odds.

Review
With Deon Meyer you can't go wrong. He's a writer whose work I admire, wait for and then devour (Michael Connelly)
A Christmas Choice for best thrillers in 2007 (The Times on DEVIL'S PEAK)
My favourite South African thriller writer (James Mitchell, Tonight, South Africa, on DEVIL'S PEAK)
'Meyer is a gifted writer...believable and disturbing' (Tangled Web on DEVIL'S PEAK)
Out of post-apartheid South Africa comes a thriller good enough to nip at the heels of le Carré (Kirkus Reviews (starred review) on HEART OF THE HUNTER)
'One of the sharpest and most perceptive thriller writers around...Think of Meyer in the way that you might have regarded a bottle of Cape red a dozen years ago - dark, strong with an unusual but beguilingly moreish taste' (The Times on DEVIL'S PEAK)
A glimpse of the soul of the new South Africa in all its glory, and with all the gory details of its problems and corruption...I marvelled at the intricacy of the plotting, I smiled at Christine's cheeky ingenuity, I felt Thobela's pain and Benny's desperation, and I was stunned by a denouement of awesome power and accomplishment (Guardian on DEVIL'S PEAK)
'Moving, expertly constructed story of a broken man's redemption' (The Sunday Times on DEVIL'S PEAK)
'Deon Meyer, who writes in Afrikaans, portrays a world of terrifying uncertainty, in which those who fought for liberation from apartheid are having to come to terms with the knowledge that freedom is not enough to wipe out cruelty. A thoughtful and exciting novel' (Times Literary Supplement on DEVIL'S PEAK)
This guy is really good. Deon Meyer hooked me with this one right from the start. HEART OF THE HUNTER is a thriller with some weight attached and that is a rare find. (Michael Connelly on HEART OF THE HUNTER)
