Detective Benny Griessel is a legend and a drunk. He has trodden on too many toes to reach the top of the promotion ladder.

Review of 'Thirteen Hours' on 'LibraryThing'

No rating

Good thriller about a girl running for her life and a murder being investigated by Capetown detectives. Though there's a bit too much about the music industry for my taste, it's a good story, and the way the plotlines intersect is neatly done. Good ensemble cast with the very real and sympathetic Benny Griessel in the lead.
