Book 5 relates back to a character from ‘Don’t kill the candles’. It takes us back a generation, to when the demon possessed teenager was an abused toddler.
It is a tragic and terrifying tale of a hard working mother who made a few wrong decisions in life, which affected her psychologically. She discovers that her little girl is molested and all hell breaks loose. A string of crimes surface, including murder!
Retribution is the 5th episode in the DEMONS series. It is somewhat shorter than the previous episodes, but no less powerful! It is the collaboration between two authors. Bernard Harold Curgenven, the original creator of the series, wrote the first 8 chapters and then sent the book off to crime author Brynn Hardeman, who then wrote the final chapters. After completing his input, Brynn Hardeman returned the episode and Bernard Harold Curgenven inserted the epilogue in several parts. Each part of the epilogue related to a book in the series, and thus clarity is given on the series as a whole.
The plot of the story is set in Durban, South Africa, on the Bluff to be precise. It begins in the 1980’s, before the suburb had evolved into what we see today. The old regime still ruled the land. It was a relatively peaceful time, so not much has changed in that regard, and the term ‘child abuse’ was mostly recognised as child molesting. Many cases went unresolved due to technicalities such as lack of hard evidence.
Can you imagine being a parent relying on the police to protect your child from sexual abuse and the accompanying trauma, only to be denied justice due to a silly technicality? It’s enough to drive anyone insane and force one to do unspeakable things.
Brynn Hardeman brings his famous gappers to the table, to investigate a series of crimes related to the original episode. The gappers are brought down to Durban, to assist the local police. The investigation takes place in 2016, what some would refer to as cold cases.
