'We walked on a patch of grass that seemed to have been burnt a few hours earlier, with soot covering our feet. There, in front of us, lay my beloved brother, Adonis, lifeless, his body facing up. There were numerous stab wounds on his body, including his face, and his lumber jacket was half burnt.'Thus begins Kaizer Nyatsumba’s tragic story of his twin brother’s horrible murder. It is also an intriguing look into aspects of South African life hitherto unknown to many.They were twins of a special kind, the closest of friends, and each other’s confidants. Their mothers were sisters, they were inseparable when they grew up, they were the first graduates in the extended family, and were the ones the family depended on for leadership.When Adonis was brutally murdered in the Pretoria area in June 2009, Kaizer was shattered and his life irrevocably changed. A part of him died with Adonis, and he has yet to come fully to terms with the loss. A very private man, the author bares his soul in this book.'This story by the master craftsman, Kaizer Nyatsumba, is so absorbing that it is impossible to stop reading.' - Michael Mandl’aButi MathabelaKaizer Mabhilidi Nyatsumba is the CEO of the Steel and Engineering Industries Federation of Southern Africa in Johannesburg, South Africa. This is his seventh book.Publisher’s website: http://sbprabooks.com/KaizerMabhilidiNyatsumba
