Described by M.J. Hyland as 'superbly written, intelligent, and powerful', Call It Dog explores the limits of family loyalty in the face of a young woman's - and a nation's - desire to right past wrongs. Jo must decide: is she complicit in a killer's escape, or helping her father seek justice?

Jo returns to South Africa after ten years in the UK to cover the riots sweeping the Jo''burg township of Alex. Nico, her estranged Afrikaner father, reappears and asks her to help prove his innocence in the murder of a black man, abducted by the security forces decades earlier. As they set off on a road trip through South Africa''s now-unfamiliar landscape, it becomes clear that Nico knows more about the murder than he is letting on, and Jo begins to wonder whether she is his accomplice, or his captive.

Set against the backdrop of a country struggling to absorb its bloody history and forge a new democracy, Call It Dog asks whether justice and truth are more important than the bonds of loyalty and love, and explores what is it like to feel you no longer belong in the land of your birth - or to your own family.
