The book will detail the rise and fall of Oscar Pistorius, with publication shortly after the trial ends.
Ravi Mirchandani, Editor-in-Chief of Atlantic Books, comments: “As a former South Africa correspondent for the Independent and as author of the international bestseller Playing The Enemy, John is the ideal writer to do justice to all the many issues surrounding the Oscar Pistorius case and trial. We’re delighted to be publishing his book and much look forward to working with him again.”
The young swimmer shot to fame and won the hearts of South Africa and the world when he beat world champion Michael Phelps in the 200m butterfly to win gold at the 2012 Olympic Games in London. Chad also won silver in the 100m butterfly, and he was named the South African Sportsman of the Year 2012. These remarkable achievements came at the age of twenty.

As he presses a revolver to his head, Reece Cole sees his little daughter’s handprints on the windowpane. One last, painful reminder of her all too short life. But then he notices something about the handprints that defies belief. Something that verges on the impossible.
He spends the next few days frantically trying to make sense of what is happening. Then a stranger stops at his gate with a small grey envelope. Inside is a single white card, inscribed with six breathtaking words: I can bring your daughter back.
