In contrast Trackers was more about an intriguing and very clever plot (although this wasn't to everyone's taste judging from some of the reviews). Seven Days is a slower paced novel than its two immediate predecessors and is also much more introspective. The author wants us to develop a better understanding of the central protaganist, Benny Griessel; who is, for me, one of the more interesting detectives in crime/thriller literature. The fact that he is an alcoholic may be something of a cliche but he is believable. Through him the reader gains some real insights into the South African police force and the wider social, economic and political context of the country. I also liked the fact that one of the more interesting characters from 13 hours, Mbali Kaleni, returns. Overall, not as exciting as 13 hours but much more thoughful in tone. Recommemded. ### ⭐⭐⭐ Routine South African police work *by M***L on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 7 April 2019* This is my third Deon Meyer book. I have reviewed the first two very favourably ( see earlier reviews) but I have been very disappointed by this third book in the "Benny Griessel" series. Whereas the first two had original and fast moving plots "7 days" is slow and somewhat laboured. There are far too many acronyms and too many characters are introduced who have little relevance to the story. By the end of the book I was almost bored and that is a stark contrast to the first two. So often an author's first book contains his best ideas and I do hope that Meyer has not fallen into the trap of producing a book a year now that his reputation is established, but without a new idea. I will try one more in this series and hope that 7 days is just a temporary glitch. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Another excellent addition to the Benny Griessel novels *by R***N on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 26 September 2015* Meyer takes this novel at a slower police procedural pace than the high octane pace of "Thirteen Hours" and "Devils Peak" but not at the expense of the quality of the writing or plot development and characterisation. I was slightly frustrated not from anything in the book but because there are frequent references to an earlier Steyn case which I thought may have been covered in an earlier book which I would liked to have read before starting this one. Also I found the frequent inclusion of local phrases expressed in the various local languages a slight frustration as I had to keep referring to the back of the book for the translation.But on the whole an excellent read. . --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sg/products/59107381-7-days-benny-griessel-book-3](https://www.desertcart.sg/products/59107381-7-days-benny-griessel-book-3) --- *Product available on Desertcart Singapore* *Store origin: SG* *Last updated: 2026-05-10*
