Aaron has no way of knowing that she has sought him out because he is a White man about to move into District Six - a formerly Non-White and Coloured area, reclassified White. He's also not to know that she's a political assassin and probably the most dangerous woman that he's ever likely to meet.
What he does know is that there is something bubbling under the surface in the South Africa around him and there's an energy in the stolen house he shares with the marijuana smoke, political discourse and public expressions of the flesh. It is unseen and unheard but always threatening to build to a crescendo and blow his world apart.
The Tyranny of Trust is a deeply resonant take of deception and intrigue, inspired by real events.
