Synopsis

In Fury and Revenge in Cape Town Dr Stanley Gershon is a dedicated embattled GP working in a Cape Town township shanty housing complex on the Cape Flats, long regarded as apartheid's dumping ground in the Mother City. He is beset by the poverty-related triad of diseases, crime and violence. Together with his close friend Jim Davids, his girlfriend Fay Ismail and Detective Adams and his daughter Lydiah, all the characters become embroiled in the political and police violence immediately following the 1976 massacre of over 60 school children in Soweto. They also become embroiled in a series of vicious attacks on township paedophiles in the already tense slum township where nationwide student-driven insurrection is in full swing to topple apartheid. All the action takes place in the shadow of the emblematic Table Mountain in Sir Francis Drakes fairest Cape in the world.
