1942, Tobruk Harbour. Job Maseko is taken prisoner by General Rommel along with 33 000 Allied troops.
But unlike most POWs, Job did not accept that he was powerless. "We don't have to give up just because we're POWs. Hitler must not win this war!" Job said before he did something so significant, ingenious and courageous that he won a medal. He should have been the fifth South African to be awarded the Victoria Cross, the highest military decoration for members of the armed forces of British Empire territories.
There Should Have Been Five is based on the true story of Job Maseko MM, a South African hero of World War II who was almost forgotten for fifty years.

Autoren-Porträt von Marilyn Honikman
Marilyn Honikman has been involved with writers most of her life. She says: "But I was a 'smous', a marketer, not a writer. Everyone else in my life was always the writer - from the authors whose books I marketed at Ravan Press and David Philip Publishers to my colleagues, the journalists at The Weekly Mail and Mail and Guardian where I was for fifteen years, again not a writer, but the sales and marketing director."She has run marketing and reader research workshops for newspaper publishers, editors and marketing managers in Khartoum, Kigali, Beirut (with Iraqi publishers), in Hanoi and in South Africa. Before this she taught History, English and Art in KwaZulu Natal.
There Should Have Been Five is her second book. In 2010 Tafelberg published The Mystery of the SS Waratah and the Avocado Tree.
