White Boys Don`t Cry

When Cris Schuter, an ex-government Minister in South Africa during the apartheid era, is found murdered, his son Josh goes missing. Sebastian Palfrey, a British newspaper correspondent, is a lifelong friend of Josh`s, and is immediately hauled in by the local police. Sebastian regards himself as a bit of a Gallic Sancho Panza to Josh`s Don Quixote - they go back a long, long way, and along with Zak, a political activist, have quite a history. But Sebastian genuinely doesn`t know where Josh is, and nor does his girlfriend, Frances. Sebastian both knows and fears that his disappearance can only throw up all sorts of secrets they`ve shared - and some they haven`t - that have long been buried.
