Resurrection, Book #3 in the Oscar Pistorius Murder Trial series - available now in print for $11

In Resurrection, a book that made it into the top 10 Amazon Kindle Bestsellers, is now available in print.  What's it about?  Resurrection asks a simple question:

Is Resurrection possible for Oscar?

The book analyses the authenticity of Oscar's story, including his 'able'bodied' narrative at the London Olympics. Personally I consider Resurrection the best book of the series in terms of research. analysis and insight.

The final three chapters provide compelling evidence for a possible motive. I have been interviewed on Jacardan FM by Rian van Heerden (and cross-examined by Piet Byleveld), and Piet and I agree on what triggered the shooting. But if they were arguing, what were they arguing about?

Right now, one of the most read stories (it was the most read until yesterday) on News24.com is this:

If Reeva's mother is right - and I believe she is - what truth was Oscar hiding?  What was his motive in killing Reeva, and what were they arguing about?  And was it premeditated murder after all?

You won't find answers to these questions in the mainstream media.

Resurrection  (and includes interviews with his former agent, lawyers, a psychologist, sports scientists and various journalists) is rated an average 5 stars on Amazon Kindle.  You can read those reviews here.

This is the best and most objective analysis of the trial evidence and verdict that we have read so far. Well written, objective and factual. A must read for anyone interested in Reeva Steenkamp's murder/crime, the subsequent Oscar Pistorius trial, and the outcome thus far. Thank you for tying up a lot of loose ends and asking the hard questions that were not examined in court.

Have read all 6 of the books now and feel so enriched. I started reading the books with an interest in the judicial system in South Africa, rights relating to womens issues and the abuse of power. But the books offered much much more than that. Yes the hook/hinge is the Oscar Pistorius trial but what you get from Nick and Lisa is an honest well researched informative read. Eric Clapton once said of Robert Johnson ...."I felt he was the one that was talking from his soul without really compromising for anybody" Sums up the books nicely! Thanks so much! -- Penny Mitchell

"Killing someone and being sorry about it isn't going to cut it. Not even close. And those who fall over themselves to extend clemency ought to visit a morgue and have a look at the reality of a dead body, one that has bled to death" !!
I was fascinated by these lines as I had been among the guilty!! And here began my journey through Revelations.

I doubt that anyone who reads it will have such closed opinions when finished reading it. To my mind it is without doubt, absolutely brilliant! The book is of course the story that has captured the attention of the world the world class athlete Oscar Pistorius and his beautiful lawyer/model girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp and the events of February 13 2013 and the trial that lasted for so many months which I followed closely.

But this book is so much more if you follow what is beneath the surface. It is extremely well thought out

It explores the South African Courts, the lawyers, the police and police corruption, the media and it's handling of stories, society and the need of people for instant gratification, where we have come from and where we are going. It takes a long hard look at modern day society and we are not such nice people as we lead ourselves to believe!!
It is a book that I will read again and again as I feel it has very deep messages for all of us as a society.

No one will ever know the real events of the night of February 13, but I do believe that the author, together with Juror No 13 have come up with a very reasonable explanation of what took place and they have done this through the most vigorous research which was not without it's own drama's and strange occurrences!! It certainly made me wonder about power, money and what it can do!! I do not want to spoil the story for anyone but do not miss this book, it is truly an excellent and emotional rollercoaster!!
