Resumen
1987, Pretoria. Four young black men have just been arrested for a horrific string of political murders. Theres no doubt that theyre guilty of everything theyre accused of - and more. But in a society riven by brutal repression and racial tensions, are they assassins or freedom fighters? Peter Harris is the lawyer called upon to defend them and, as he constructs his case to save them from the death penalty, he comes to understand the violence they encountered growing up in the townships and the chain of events that led them to join the ANC, undergo training at Zumas camps in Angola, and return to their homeland to execute some of the apartheid regimes most notorious figures. Harris intercuts the story of their trial with flashbacks to the squads operations and a deadly counterplot to reveal a campaign carried out with ruthless efficiency.
