Cobra: A Novel (Benny Griessel Mysteries Book 4)

A riveting thriller from the acclaimed â€œKing of South African crimeâ€ and the author of Blood Safari: â€œDeon Meyer is one of the unsung mastersâ€ (Michael Connelly).
Â
Deon Meyer is a world-class writer whose page-turning thrillers probe the social and racial complexities of his native country. InÂ Cobra, a famous English mathematician is kidnapped and his two bodyguards are killed at a guesthouse in the beautiful wine country outside Cape Town. Itâ€™s clearly a professional hit, and the spent shell cases offer a chilling clue: each is engraved with the head of a spitting cobra.
Â
Meanwhile, in the city, a skilled thief is using his talents to put his sister through college. But he picks the wrong pocket, grabbing the wallet of a young American woman delivering something very valuable and dangerous to South Africa. The thief not only becomes the target of the deadly hit man known as the Cobra, but unwittingly holds the key to stopping a deadly international threat. Itâ€™s up to Captain Benny Griessel and his elite investigation team to find the pickpocket and track down the Cobra as the novel hurtles toward a brilliant, heart-stopping finale on the suburban commuter trains.
Â
â€œMr. Meyer, the leading thriller writer in his native country, traffics in crime-novel situations familiar the world over: drunken cops, charming robbers, dangerous murderers, sudden violenceâ€”and sometimes, issues of race.â€ â€”The Wall Street Journal
