Blood on the Veld paperback cover by  author S.A Mclain

In the blink of an eye, his whole life changed. 

Now he's back in search of answers. But will the truth destroy him?

 

When seventeen-year-old Christian Bekker killed a poacher, he claimed it was self-defense. But the judge disagreed. He gave Christian a choice: go to prison or leave his home in South Africa and never return. 

Following his father’s suicide, conservation director Dr. Christian Bekker uncovers a plea from the grave to find out the truth about what happened on that fateful day more than twenty years ago.

Suddenly, he’s on a plane headed for Johannesburg, leaving behind his life in London in search of answers. Were his father’s suspicions correct or the result of twenty years spent dreaming about what might have been?

All thoughts of staying under the radar disappear as his past plunges him into a murky and profitable world where police officers and government officials conspire with criminals to exploit what remains of South Africa’s wildlife. Soon he finds himself in the criminals’ sights . . .
 

Blood on the Veld, the first book in the Christian Bekker Wildlife Crime Thriller series, is an action-packed adventure by award-winning author S.A. McLain that delves into the deepest depths of corruption, power and greed.

Andy Hutchings for Readers' Favorite

“An excellent opening novel to what I hope will be a long running series . . . dangerous, fascinating, and more than a little addictive, this is a quality thriller that I recommend highly."
