Order of Benny Griessel Books

Benny Griessel serves as the central character in South African author Deon Meyer's gripping crime thriller series. This Cape Town homicide detective finds himself at rock bottom when readers first encounter him - teetering on the brink of complete personal and professional collapse. His marriage, career, and self-worth all hang by a thread as he struggles to hold his life together.

Meyer launched the Benny Griessel series in 2007 with Devil's Peak, and continues to develop this compelling character's journey in an ongoing collection of novels. The books listed below follow both their original publication sequence and chronological story order:
