Iwan is die jongste en ook die luiste van drie seuns. Op ’n dag stuur sy pa hom om takke in die woud te gaan afbreek en daar kom hy ’n blinde man teë. Dié man sê vir hom dat hy eendag die tsaar van Rusland sal word. Al wat hy moet doen, is om op die bakoond in die huis te lê, net sonneblompitte te eet, en met niemand te praat nie … vir sewe jaar lank!
Die jare gaan verby en uiteindelik begin sy groot reis na die Witteberge, ’n reis vol avontuur en gevare. Hy kom teen die bose Og te staan, kruis paaie met die rower Batur en reken met ’n heks af. So trek hy deur seisoene en landskappe, en telkens moet hy ’n nuwe struikelblok op pad oorkom.
Maar Wanja glo vas in die voorspelling van die blinde man en hou voet by stuk. Sou die ou man die waarheid gepraat het?
For fans of Little White Lies and Two Can Keep a Secret comes an
addictive thriller about a budding teen celebrity secretly
investigating his brother's suspicious death while navigating the highs
and lows of fame.
Rising star Abel Miller has just landed a role in one of the hottest
reboots on the Omni Channel, Sunset High. It looks like he’ll be yet
another budding celebrity plucked from obscurity, but he has a secret:
his brother, Adam, a mere production associate, died during the filming
of the last attempt at Sunset High, and no one knows how… or why. Abel
is going to find out.
But when he meets the other stars of the show— Lucky, Ryan, and Ella,
along with creator Lake Carter— he realizes there’s even more darkness
beneath the shimmer of fame. They all have their own secrets to hide,
and one of them is willing to kill to keep it that way.
