Investigative journalist Kyle Cowan exposes the inner workings of South Africa's power utility, Eskom. From corruption and sabotage to political interference, this book unpacks the crises that plunged the country into rolling blackouts and economic strain — sharp, well-researched, and essential reading.
Widely discussed for its relevance to South Africa's ongoing energy crisis, praised for its investigative depth and urgency. Dense with detail but illuminating — the kind of book that makes you understand exactly how we got here.
Perfect for fans of Jacques Pauw (The President's Keepers), Pieter-Louis Myburgh (Gangster State), or readers interested in South African politics and investigative journalism.
A trade paperback (2022) in Good condition. Minor wear, still highly readable.
