An Official Killing is a tale of ordinary people acting inhumanely, of the underdog showing compassion, of love and empathy flourishing despite the harshness of war. It is the journey of a young Afrikaner woman caught up in the wickedness of the Second Boer War between Boer and Brit (1899 - 1902) in South Africa.

We follow her on a path of bewilderment after the family farm was slashed and burned, including hellish incarceration in concentration camps. Then north into the untamed frontier territory of the Bushveld.

We learn many lessons applicable even today - how to live a life to the full under challenging circumstances and with barely any comforts. We learn wisdom and about our own truth.
