Just shocking, pun intended. While the corruption and sabotage laid bare were deeply unsettling, prompting more than a few audible gasps, the book was so well written that it kept me enthralled from start to finish. What stood out most was de Ruyter’s sense of humour woven through the narrative, which helped balance the weight of the subject matter. I genuinely enjoyed the read, even if parts of it left me reeling at the state of affairs.
5/5
