In The Evil Day

This book In The Evil Day by Peter Temple is a genre I don't usually read but tried it this time. It is a "conspiracy", espionage type story. An evil deed from the past - massacre in an African village returns to haunt those in the present because a movie was taken of the event. Niemand, a South African mercenary happens on to the film and tries to expose it to the public, for a fee. However, those responsible for the atrocity do their utmost to ensure the film remains hidden. A German, Anselm, works for a company which uses computer contacts to find people, for a fee. He also has a troubled past. As the story progresses, all the pieces tie together as we learn why someone is so desperate that this film not be exposed to the public. High body count, and confusing at times trying to work out who is who and what they're doing, but stick with it till its thrilling climax. 3/5
