About this listen

One last chance. Almost fired for insubordination, Detectives Benny Griessel and Vaughn Cupido find themselves demoted, exiled from the elite Hawks unit and dispatched to the leafy streets of Stellenbosch. Working a missing persons report on student Callie de Bruin is not the level of work they are used to, but it's all they get. And soon, it takes a dangerous, deeply disturbing turn.

One last chance. Stellenbosch is beautiful, but its economy has been ruined by one man. Jasper Boonstra and his gigantic corporate fraud have crashed the local property market, just when estate agent Sandra Steenberg desperately needs a big sale. Bringing up twins and supporting her academic husband, she is facing disaster. Then she gets a call. From Jasper Boonstra, fraudster, sexual predator and owner of a superb property worth millions, even now.

For Sandra, the stakes are high and about to get way higher.

For Benny Griessel, clinging to sobriety and the relationship that saved his life, the truth about Callie can only lead to more trouble.

Taut with intrigue, murder and suspense, exploding with action and excitement, The Dark Flood is a masterpiece from the author of Trackers and The Last Hunt.

Narrator's voice irritating

In my opinion, a better narrator could do much more for this writer and book

Thoroughly enjoyable

The narration and story engulfed me into listening whenever possible. Perfect for long walks with the dog.
I cannot wait for the future adventures of Bennie and Cupido. Thank you Deon

Nice intertwined detective story

Typical Deon Meyer. I found in well written and at times suspenseful. I didn't like the narrator that much though.

Entertaining

My husband and I listened to this book together. (His first Audible experience). So glad I chose this book to introduce him to Audible as the narrator was excellent. Deon Meyer has created two very entertaining characters in Benny & Vaughn. We loved the story.

Disappointed

Not a new book. Just a translation of an old one. Ripoff. Wasted Credit.
