Summary

Brothers-in-law Harry and Jack run a Johannesburg furniture business that is being robbed repeatedly. The investigation of the crime reveals that the perpetrators lie even closer than the proprietors expected--and explores also how the social forces at work in South Africa today have made crime the country's biggest growth industry. Written on the tenth anniversary of the fall of apartheid, "People Who Have Stolen From Me" describes a nation in the throes of rebuilding itself, through the eyes of two witty, perceptive men.
