Set in South Africa, 1985, ENDGAME is a gripping and sophisticated political thriller full of intriguing and unexpected heroes. While the country is under siege, Mandela's imprisonment is an international cause célèbre and the ANC guerrilla terrorist attacks are escalating. Every day the country is more ungovernable as it plunges towards the apocalypse of a race war. Everyone knows the vile apartheid regime is doomed but will the transition to democracy be peaceful or bloody?
