Amiga Khalo is a two-million-dollar investment. As the adopted daughter of Sandton's most elite family, her life is a curated masterpiece of silk jumpsuits and high-stakes social climbing. But when a single cruel comment shatters her sense of belonging, Amiga trades the skyscrapers of Johannesburg for the red dust of Ga-Masingita.

​She returns to find the mother who gave her up twenty years ago, but she doesn't find a tearful reunion. She finds Masingita?a traditional healer with a sharp tongue and an even sharper understanding of the "Physics of the Soil."

​Fueled by "Sandton Evil" and a desire for vengeance, Amiga begins to study the ancient botanical secrets of the Limpopo bush?not to heal, but to craft a final, lethal grudge. But when a family emergency strikes, Amiga must decide if she will use the poison she's brewed to kill the past, or the medicine she's found to save her future.

​The Hybrid Heart is a razor-sharp contemporary thriller about the debt we owe our ancestors and the chemistry of who we really are.
