In a Different Time
It is the final years of Nationalist rule, and four ANC cadres steal across the border into
South Africa. They left as students after the Soweto riots of June 1976;
now they return as soldiers, a specialist unit reporting to Chris Hani. Their mission:
to carry out acts of war in the country of their birth.
On the other side, a police hit squad operates in deepest secrecy, relentless,
and a dark conspiracy unfolds.
When the four eventually are captured, they face the ultimate penalty.
Narrated by their lawyer as the trial progresses, this compelling true story is
an insider's account of one of the most dramatic political court cases of the previous era.
Peter Harris (above left) will be joined by author and editor Mike Nicol (above right)
for a discussion about writing non-fiction as a thriller -
hit squads, court room dramas, the death sentence and a ticking bomb.
Also, since publication there have been developments regarding
some of the people Harris writes about and he'll fill us in on those, too.
