Something in Your Eyes / Babele (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781991151933)

Why does a world-famous woman ask down-and-out private investigator Harry Mann to find her missing teenage daughter, Angela? What exactly do they see in each other's eyes? And why is anyone who has anything to do with Angela ending up dead?

Why does concert pianist Hari Manze agree to perform for a crazed African dictator, who is building a Tower of Babel up to his brother, Christ, in the Kgalagadi desert? Why is he preparing a feast for everyone who has betrayed him? And why can't Hari help feeling attracted to that troublemaker, Siya Khoza?

Is there still a place for such notions as love, justice and democracy amidst all this insanity? These are some of the questions Sonnekus addresses with the immediacy of his prose and dark sense of humour.
