Dup Departs: A Time To Go

By Gavin Mills

When the system fails you, the streets take over.
Arnold "Dup" Du Preez is running out of road. His business is dead, his marriage is bleeding out, and Johannesburg-his city-is rotting from the inside. When a late-night tequila run with an old flame leads him to a strip-club boss with dangerous connections, Dup is offered a way out: a new life in Australia.
All it'll cost is his soul.
Behind the promise of escape lurks Ivan Bazckowski, a Polish gangster running the city's veins of coke and corruption-and Genghis Kahn, a Nigerian film mogul whose empire blurs the line between camera and cartel. When Dup steps between them, he's dragged into a world where dirty money and death deals are just business, and trust is the fastest way to get killed.
As the stakes rise and the bodies drop, Dup must decide whether he's fleeing the country-or becoming the next casualty of it.
Gritty, fast-paced and darkly human, Dup Departs tears through the neon-lit underbelly of Johannesburg-where the only thing more dangerous than the truth is survival itself.
