Overview

Brutal Bullion is a high energy fictional thriller, drawing attention to the plight of the people trapped in the illegal gold trade, highlighting the appalling conditions in which these people live and work.
A story grounded in the 1990’s post democracy era, set within the large mining city of Welkom in the Free State, central South Africa.

The account will take you headlong into the impetuous and often violent trade, including the relentless dangers, the folklore, the falls of ground, the effects of mercury poisoning and the ever-present corrupt officials central to their trapped existence.

Included are blood feuds between the waring leaders, who use murder as a tool in their pursuit for control.

In the midst of heartache, pain and sheer evil, love finds a way to prevail. The flash point for possible change… yet in some way, fuel for the enduring malevolence and pain.

It’s a world where the balance of good and evil is measured only by the observer’s point of view.

It’s still happening today, unabated and just as lethal.

About the Author

I'm a husband, father and recently a grandfather, these are my most important biographical features.

I have numerous technical and financial qualifications, having held executive positions with numerous listed and private companies across the globe, none of which are relevant to my writing. I served my country faithfully in the 'bush wars' an experience which has had an influence on my writing. I love my God, my wife, my family, my way of life and my country equally.. and each feel the same way about me.

My writing started with the Children's fables each containing subtle, and sometimes not so subtle messages to my three grandchildren that might provide guidance in their navigation of our ever-changing and confusing world. My novel writing started as a result of the free time the Covid 19 pandemic created so I sat down and gave it a try, to discover another new delight I didn't know existed.

I live and write in paradise, a village called Knysna in the heart of the garden route on the south coast of South Africa where every passing day is a new blessing.

I aspired to these values - Honesty, Dignity and Respect in my quest to become a happier human being. I often fall down and get up again, but I think its starting to work!!! Thank you for your interest in my stories...I pray they shine more light into your life as they have mine.
