Then the brutal murder of a young woman―the latest in a string of deaths across the coast―confounds police. The primary suspect? A mystery man who dates his victims before he kills them.

Sydney should feel safe. After all, she is dating the guy of her dreams. But she can’t shake her own suspicions that the perfect man may not be as perfect as he seems. Because someone is watching her every move, and if she doesn’t get to the truth, she’ll be the killer’s next victim...

Lafras Cuyper se boot is die Hirondelle - en die Hirondelle is die vinnigste korvet in die Indiese oseaan. Geen wonder dat die Engelse bevelvoerders in Indie die jong kaperkaptein vrees nie, want min van hulle het nog nie met sy buitengewone gesigsvermoe, wakker verstand, waaghalsigheid en dapperheid kennis gemaak nie. Toe die jong man hulle vir die soveelste keer vir die gek hou, besluit hulle dat daar so gou moontlik drasties teen hom opgetree moet word. Hulle stuur drie skepe om hom gevange te neem of, as dit nie anders kan nie, saam met sy boot na die dieptes te stuur. Hulle glo hulle plan is waterdig, maar hulle hou nie rekening met die feit dat 'n heldedaad Lafras twee waardevolle Engelse bewonderaars besorg het nie; dat hul eie spioen homself verraai het om die koekie groen lekkerruikseep...Die verhaal van Lafras Cuyper is op feite gebaseer.

Manon Viljoen is ‘n jong advokaat en ywerige motorfietsryer. Sy word ingeroep om as amicus curiae die regter by te staan in ‘n moordsaak om ‘n regverdige uitspraak te lewer. Die beskuldigde is Charles Mouton, ‘n suksesvolle senior advokaat wat een oggend wakker word langs die bebloede lyk van sy vrou en van haar moord aangekla word. Hy weet nie wat gebeur het nie. Of so beweer hy. Hy weier om aan die verhoor deel te neem omdat hy glo die hof moet die waarheid soek. Dit val dus op Manon se skouers om die waarheid te soek en voor die hof te lê. Manon se aanstelling word bemoeilik deur die feit dat sy en regter Nantes Castel ‘n geskiedenis het. Die verhoor loop allerande draaie terwyl Manon na redelike twyfel soek en terselfdertyd haar gevoelens vir Nantes bevraagteken. Stel hy nog belang, of terg hy haar sommer net?

Vind Manon die waarheid waarna sy soek ‒ oor die identiteit van die moordenaar en ook oor Nantes se gevoelens vir haar? Of is daar redelike twyfel?

Oom Chris is die baas van Doodsedrif – of so het hy gedink. Sy vet, bruin kalf lê versuip langs die seekoeigat. Toe dryf oom Jan Oortjies se ou hond opgeblaas langs die oewer. Kraaibek, die mak bobbejaan, spring kort daarna waansinnig in die rivier en verdrink.

Telkens sien oom Chris se seuns die drietonige voetspoor op die riviersand. Manienk, een van die plaasseuns, meen dis Salmaklak, “die gladde nat dier wat hier by jou in die water is”. Hy trek die diere in die water in en los hul liggame om in die rivier af te dryf.

Maar wie het die Tswanaseun met ’n graaf oor die kop geslaan en in ’n vlak graf begrawe?

Karl Kielblock was ongetwyfeld een van die beste speurverhaalskrywers in ons land. Met hierdie boek bewys hy dit weer eens. Mooier as die blomme is deel van die Frans Lindenhof-speurreeks en dis ‘n verhaal met baie spanning en onverwagte wendinge en ook heelwat afwisseling wat daarvoor sorg dat dit end-uit genietbaar bly. Namakwaland se kleurkaleidoskoop lok elke jaar duisende besoekers van oraloor. Daar is egter iets nog mooier en waardevoller as veldblomme wat in die Namakwaland verskuil is, besef Joachim Verbeek wanneer ‘n skilderekspedisie plotseling in 'n nagmerrie ontaard. Wanneer Verbeek se paadjie onwetend met die van uitgeslape diamantdiewe kruis, verander dit wat as ‘n rustige wegbreek beplan is in 'n jaagtog vol blink klippies, verleidelike vroue – en lewensgevaar. Niks ontglip egter die onverskrokke speurder-sersant Frans Lindenhof se waaksame oe en fyn ore nie, en hy onderneem om die misdadigers vas te keer.
