"The Scent of Oranges" by Joan Zawatzky
Linda returns to her family's orange farm in South Africa after her father's death. She finds that many things have changed while she lived in Australia. When she starts to investigate her brother's murder, many family secrets are revealed and in the end the murderer is identified.
The book would have been fine without the attempt at mysticism, Linda can sense the spirits of her father and dead brother. Overall, an interesting story about a white family adjusting to a changing country.
