6-10 jaar. Hierdie keer is Kwaaikofski in die platteland, maar dit is alles behalwe ’n vakansie! Die dorpie waar hy gaan kuier het ‘n goeie speurder dringend nodig. Met sy aankoms gewaar hy ’n vreemde, blou rubberkoei wat deur die lug vlieg. En later vind Kwaaikofski ’n harige koeistert in sy bed, saam met twee lang, bleek bene! Iemand probeer hom beslis die skrik op die lyf jaag . . . Gelukkig sorg die mooi meisie, Julie, dat die lewe tussen koeie, trekkers en gruwelike skurke darem nie té ondraaglik raak nie. Die intriges van die stories in hierdie reeks is eenvoudig, maar uiters vermaaklik en die humoristiese illustrasies sal sorg dat kinders dol sal wees oor hierdie koddige, maar brawe klein speurder se avonture!

Jim Bailey, son of millionaire mining magnate Abe Bailey, achieved renown as a WW2 hero, author and proprietor of DRUM magazine. In 1950, Barbara, then a girl of 12, met the dashing 23-year old Jim at his sister's house in Illovo. That night she wrote in her diary: I have met the most beautiful person and I am going to marry him. This is the marriage charted here, in diary entries spanning 50 years. Barbara's story is funny, whimsical and sad in turn. We get to know Barbara intimately, along with her eccentric family (she is artist Beezy and restaurateur Prospero's mother) and her wide coterie of famous and fabulous friends. The cast includes such luminaries as Yehudi Menuhin, Bruce Chatwin, the Oppenheimers, Orson Welles, Helen Suzman, Thomas Packenhan, James Fox, Linda Chalker and Dame Margot Fonteyn. Barbara chronicles the course of her first marriage, to Jeremy Taylor, and her subsequent liaison with her true love, Jim. Jim Baily, who was not above attending SAAN board meetings in his bare feet, was probably one of the only true South African eccentrics. Their life together was not only full of music and laughter and hunting parties; it also contained profound sadness. Their son Bundy was killed in a car crash, and Barbara writes movingly about losing a child. The diary ends with her nursing Jim as he lay dying.

Die liefde loop egter sy eie pad en het die vermoë om selfs die diepste seer te genees.
