I have interviewed a fair number if hitmen as a journalist, but this book still shocked me from cover to cover." - Mandy Weiner, author of Killing Kebble
"Mark show takes a subject usually confined to the pages of pulp fiction and turns it into the stuff of serious analysis on the place that assassinations occupy in South Africa's political, economic and social life." -- Jonny Steinberg, author of A Man of Good Hope
