Cache

by Donald Smith

When Nelson Mandela came to power and the policy of apartheid ended, Afrikaner peoples in South Africa took fright. Maghiel Grobelaar, head of Mines and about to lose his job, had an idea. The story tracks the movement of lost krugerrands, after a complex theft from the Mint in Pretoria. Years later David Johnston, a high powered computer man in one of London’s largest companies, and his colleagues, are brought into the search. They are challenged, amongst others, by a highly trained ex-Stasi senior officer who now heads the thuggish international “Daggers” organisation, based in Geneva, and his associates. Several major deceptions lead to a nail-biting finale in which the winner, most certainly, does not take all.
