The chilling words are followed by a confession to a murder committed nearly 13 years earlier. The chance discovery of the letter on 31 March 2012 reawakens a case long considered to have run cold, and a hunt begins for the men who kidnapped and killed Betty Ketani and were convinced they had gotten away with it. The investigation spans five countries, with a world-renowned DNA laboratory called in to help solve the forensic puzzle. The author of the confession letter might have feared death, but he is very much alive, as are others implicated in the crime. Betty Ketani, a mother of three, came to Johannesburg in search of better prospects for her family. She found work cooking at one of the city's most popular restaurants, and then one day she mysteriously disappeared. Those out to avenge her death want to bring closure to Betty's family, still agonising over her fate all these years later. The storyline would not be out of place as a Hollywood movie and it's all completely true. Written by the reporter who broke the story, Cold Case Confession goes behind the headlines to share exclusive material gathered in four years of investigations, including the most elusive piece of the puzzle: who would want Betty Ketani dead, and why?"--Back cover. 600 10 $a Ketani, Betty. 600 17 $a Ketani, Betty. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01992203 650 0 $a Murder $x Investigation $z South Africa. 650 0 $a Murder $z South Africa $v Case studies. 650 0 $a Kidnapping $x Investigation $z South Africa. 650 0 $a Kidnapping $z South Africa $v Case studies. 650 7 $a Kidnapping. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00987322 650 7 $a Kidnapping $x Investigation. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01920579 650 7 $a Murder. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01029781 650 7 $a Murder $x Investigation. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01029788 651 7 $a South Africa. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204616 655 7 $a Case studies. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423765 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191121015825.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=7BDB2C9C462211E9A3F20F6897128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
