FULL SUMMARY:
In Chapter 1 of 'Permanente Ink', a serial killer known as the "Romeo and Juliet Killer" strikes again. This time, the victims, 16-year-old Michelle van der Merwe from Seepunt and her 17-year-old boyfriend Johannes Harmse, were found dead on the slopes of Table Mountain. Discovered by anonymous hikers around 16:00, van der Merwe had a fatal stab wound in her chest, presumably the cause of her death, while no obvious injuries were found on Harmse. The police, yet to confirm if this crime was the work of the titular killer, promised to issue a statement upon the conclusion of the post-mortem examination. This killer has been terrorizing Cape Town and its surrounding southern suburbs for the past five months, with six teenagers, all couples between the ages of 15 and 18, murdered in a similar brutal manner. The girls are found with lethal chest injuries, and the boys are poisoned with an unknown mixture. Their bodies are laid next to each other, hands intertwined post-mortem. Police Commissioner Jakes Tshabalala assures the public that the authorities are doing all they can to apprehend the serial killer and urges parents to always be aware of their teenagers' whereabouts. Schools are also advised to warn their students to avoid isolated locations. Anyone with information is instructed to contact Inspector Liebenberg at the Mouille Point police station.

FULL SUMMARY:
Die sogenaamde Romeo-en-Juliet-reeksmoordenaar het weer aangeval. Die 16-jarige Michelle van der Merwe en haar 17-jarige vriend, Johannes Harmse, se lichame is op die Tafelberg gevind. Stappers het die grusame ontdekking om 16:00 gemaak. Michelle het 'n steekwond in haar bors gehad wat moontlik tot haar dood gelei het, terwyl daar geen ooglopende beserings op Johannes se liggaam gevind is nie. Die polisie kon nie bevestig dat die moorde die werk van die Romeo-en-Juliet-reeksmoordenaar is nie, maar sal 'n verklaring uitreik sodra die nadoodse ondersoek klaar is. Die Romeo-en-Juliet-reeksmoordenaar het Kaapstad en die omliggende Suidelike Voorstede vir die afgelope vyf maande geteister. Ses tieners, almal paartjies tussen die ouderdomme van 15 en 18, is op dieselfde manier vermoor. Die meisies is met 'n noodlottige steekwond in die bors gevind, en die seuns is met 'n onbekende mengsel vergiftig. Hul lyke is langs mekaar neergelê met hul hande ná dood inmekaar gevleg. Polisiekommissaris Jakes Tshabalala het gesê dat die polisie alles in hul mag doen om die reeksmoordenaar vas te trek en het ouers gewaarsku om bewus te wees van hul tieners se bewegings. Skole moet ook hul leerders waarsku om weg te bly van afgeleë plekke. Wie enige inligting het, word aangeraai om inspekteur Liebenberg by die Mouillepunt-polisiestasie te kontak by (021) 555 4301.
