The Red Pebbles of Tandberg

3. THE RED PEBBLES OF TANDBERG - RYK SCHOONRAAD SERIES

In the wild borderlands of Graskolk, at the edge of the untamed Tandberg in the northern Cape Colony, mystery and danger cast a long shadow over the sun-baked streets. When the enigmatic Roelien van der Spuy arrives in this isolated outpost, she is driven by a singular purpose: to uncover the truth behind her father Helgaardt’s disappearance two years ago. Her arrival disrupts the uneasy quiet of the town, stirring up whispers of a dark secret hidden in its depths.

Among the wary townsfolk, Roelien encounters Ryk Schoonraad, a rugged farmer whose curiosity about her quest quickly turns into something deeper. Together, they face growing hostility and the threat of deadly violence as their search for answers uncovers long-buried grudges and an undercurrent of betrayal. A menacing encounter with Basie Broeksema sets off a dangerous chain of events, while a series of near-fatal attacks on Roelien reveals that someone will go to any lengths to silence her. Ryk’s discovery of a cryptic letter and a chance meeting with a wandering Bushman named Ghwarra point to a sinister conspiracy. The puzzle deepens with the murder of the eccentric Uncle Gerrie Volgraaff, whose cryptic journal holds tantalizing clues. As Roelien and Ryk follow the trail of secrets through veld fires and perilous encounters with the wilderness, the abandoned mine at the heart of Tandberg emerges as the epicenter of a chilling mystery.

Amid breathtaking landscapes and treacherous terrain, Roelien and Ryk must navigate a labyrinth of danger, betrayal, and hidden truths. As they piece together the fragments of Helgaardt’s story, they are drawn toward a discovery that will not only unveil the secrets of the past but also challenge their courage and resolve. The Red Pebbles of Tandberg is a thrilling tale of intrigue and resilience, set against the backdrop of a harsh and unforgiving land. With danger lurking behind every corner and the stakes growing ever higher, the question remains. Will Roelien and Ryk unravel the truth in time, or will the secrets of Tandberg claim them as its final victims?
