Book excerpt: RIMMER’S MOST CONTROVERSIAL BOOK YET! Luke was close to death. He had been beaten mercilessly and was unrecognisable. They wanted the names of his ANC accomplices. Matt and Luke are born on the same day, spending an idyllic childhood in the heart of the Transkei, blissfully unaware of the differences between them. When they are forced to leave their home, both young boys struggle to find their place in a society where racial segregation is part of everyday life. Slowly they begin to build their lives but everything changes when Luke is taken in the night from Matt’s flat to a place unknown and is brutally beaten for information. After spending time in a hospital, they sadly part with Luke embarking on the revolutionary fight for freedom and Matt building a business empire. It’s the 1960s, South Africa, and it would be another twenty-nine years before they would meet again. Can either of them find peace, or was their all-too-brief childhood their only comfort in a world driven by political and societal extremes? Told from a personal perspective, Peter Rimmer’s Vultures in the Wind will open your eyes to the fate of South Africa and of the machinations of the great powers of the East and West.

Young Adam Beaumont, the son of a wealthy aristocratic family, is a commissioned officer in the Royal Air Force.

But Adam cares little for family politics, and is still haunted by the murder of his Malayan mother at the hands of the Japanese. At a debutante ball, Adam overhears whispers of scandal. Beau, his pompous and arrogant cousin, claims Adam is illegitimate… that his father and mother never married, and he is not worthy of the family estate. With no marriage certificate to prove otherwise, Beau’s insult strikes a nerve, and Adam’s blood boils. He is determined to prove his cousin wrong, by any means necessary… Travelling to Hong Kong to work in his uncle’s branch of the family business, Adam delves into his family’s wartime past. Desperate to find a witness to his parent’s wedding, the young man makes the acquaintance of his father’s old friend, Perry Marshbank.
