In May this year, a body was found on a beach in Macassar in the Western Cape. The victim, a young woman, had been brutally raped and murdered before being dumped in the sand. There were no witnesses, and over the next few days, three more bodies were discovered in this small community. But it wasnโt always like this: elderly residents who have lived in the once-peaceful fishing village their whole lives recall happier times.

With the police apparently powerless to help, Macassar is under siege.
