A panopticon is an all-seeing system of control.

This story is set in Apartheid South Africa where racial segregation was aggressively enforced by the white rulers. An innocent friendship between a white man Richard and a black man Simon brings them under surveillance of the feared and ruthless Security Police. Their friendship challenges the notion of white superiority and as a result both men suffer insults, abuse and brutal persecution.

This is a gripping and compelling story that makes the full horror of apartheid and racism chillingly real. This is an important book and it is written by someone who knows. The Very Revd. Peter Judd, Dean Emeritus of Chelmsford.
