"The Border Jumper is a chilling account of a young man's ordeal when he leaves his native Zimbabwe for South Africa. Qinisela, who hails from Bulawayo escapes a low-paid factory job and a biting economic crisis. Like other like-minded, he has his sights on Jozi, the City of Gold, as Johannesburg is famed. He survives a treacherous journey across the border but once in Johannesburg, he finds himself sucked into its underworld with no easy way out. the story is a brutally frank journey into the world of border jumping, a journey that remains engraved in the mid long after the last page has been turned.
