Book review: The Mandela Plot by Kenneth Bonert

"South African born Jewish-Canadian author Kenneth Bonert’s sophomore effort  The Mandela Plot  is a sequel to his multiple awards winning debut novel  The Lion Seeker  (also reviewed on NYJB) that continues the Helger family saga begun in the earlier volume in a rather dark combination coming of age story and political thriller. A concluding epilogue in the final fifth of the novel includes commentary on post-Apartheid South Africa in general and the predicament of its Jewish citizens in particular." -- From my review of The Mandela Plot by Kenneth Bonert in New York Journal of Books
