My stomach went cold, as though I'd swallowed a trayful of ice cubes. I looked out the window, half expecting to see someone watching me. There was no-one. Just the wall my bedroom looks out on. And as I looked at it, it seemed to be coming towards me, getting closer and closer, looming over me so that I was sure it would crush me. And then it broke into bits of concrete flying in all directions, shouting `We know your secret!'. Bongani is a smart, loveable young teenager, struggling to manage his tricky life. Someone has discovered his terrible secret and Bongani must find him and silence him. This fast-paced humorous story examines serious issues with wisdom and sensitivity. It will entertain and provoke even the most reluctant readers. "The trip that Bongani takes us on - from the first peep, peep, peep of his ever-present cell phone to the uncovering of a devastating secret that he's been living with, has the speed and twists of a rollercoaster ride ... with a surprise ending. But it's the intimacy of the writer's style that keeps the reader constantly at Bongani's side - as well as on his side." Niki Daly, judge of the MML Literature Awards.

The Best Journeys Have No Destinations is an amazing, true account of Gail Smith and Janet Hastings' spiritual journey through sacred sites, visions and dreams, psychic phenomena and past-life encounters. As they peel back the layers of ancient knowledge, and follow the clues from old books, synchronicities and spirit guides, they are led on a fascinating quest to Glastonbury and Avebury, England. Here they meet a Druid master who guides them to a prehistoric cave and the mysteries of an ancient ceremony, and the crop circles that appear in the fields of Somerset. You are led into the distant world of alchemists, Knights Templars, Cathars, and the St.Clair's, to the revelation that what happened then is happening now, that the past flows into the present, and leads us irrevocably into the future. The reader is shown that there is no death, only the timelessness of life in the spiral of time. As science expands its understanding of the cosmos, and we stretch the borders of our minds, we will awaken to the "infinite possibilities" in this ever-expanding universe.
