About The Shadow State By Jeff Wicks

On 23 August 2021, a quiet, hardworking single mom was shot down as she drove home. Her name was Babita Deokaran, chief accountant at the Gauteng Department of Health. The izinkabi paid to kill her were caught, but the question remained: who ordered her murder, and why?

Crime reporter Jeff Wicks set out to find the answer – a pursuit that would profoundly change, even endanger, his life.

This is an explosive investigation into state capture and a moving tribute to the cost of integrity.
