Résumé

A bank on the brink. A family in ruins. One night to decide between truth and survival. South Africa, 1932. The Great Depression has tightened its grip, and Jan de Wet an Afrikaner bank clerk in Johannesburg discovers that the books at Volksbank do not balance. £4, 000 in worthless drought loans are being sold as gilt-edged investments to depositors who cannot afford to lose a shilling. If Jan speaks up, the bank collapses and widows, war veterans, and struggling farmers lose everything.
If he stays silent, he repeats the moral collapse that has haunted his family for a century. As dawn approaches, Jan turns to the cracked leather ledger his grandfather carried through the South African War. Page by page it chronicles a blood-price paid for slaves, a barn torched by redcoats, cattle rotting from rinderpest, and a promise whispered in a British concentration camp: survive at any cost.
Now that same ledger sits on Jan's desk, its final blank pages waiting for the entry only he can write. Torn between an idealistic colleague who demands the truth and a ruthless manager who threatens his job, Jan has until sunrise to decide: expose the fraud and destroy his people, or protect them and betray his soul. The Ledger of Loss is a sweeping, heart-pounding novel about the price of honesty in the wreckage of history and the moment when one man must choose which legacy deserves to survive.
