Liela Oloffson se ouers is in ’n huisbrand oorlede toe sy tien jaar oud was, maar vandag het sy alles wat meeste mense begeer. Skoonheid, roem, en ’n blink loopbaan as aktrise. Maar dan verdwyn sy een Vrydagnag spoorloos en kaptein Kgomotso vra gesoute misdaadjoernalis Ami Prinsloo se hulp. Soos ’n bloedhond volg Ami Liela se spoor van waar sy laas by ’n Engen-garage in Johannesburg gesien is. Maar waarom lyk dit op die CCTV-kamera of Liela alleen van die garage wegry? Kruip Liela weg of is sy gekaap? Of dalk ontvoer? En waaroor het sy en haar verloofde so hewig baklei net voor sy verdwyn het? Die Verkeerde Vrou is die tweede boek in Irma Venter se nuwe reeks met misdaadjoernalis Ami Prinsloo as hoofkarakter. Die Verkeerde Vrou volg op Minder As Niks, maar kan ook alleen gelees word.
A week before her wedding Janien Steyn is found dead, grotesquely arranged on a bike in her wedding dress, with a long red bridal train in her wake, as if in mid flight. Retired policeman Jaap Reyneke asks Sarah Fourie, a hacker with a criminal record and zero social skills, to help solve the case. Janien was a successful artist and business woman, and on the point of marrying her university sweetheart. Was it suicide or murder? Why was her body arranged so carefully, almost artfully? And why did she wipe her computer’s memory so thoroughly before her death?

Since the early days of humanity, gifts as varied as valued objects, hospitality, and works of art have been an essential means of establishing and maintaining social ties. "Strategic Affection?" studies the exchange of gifts in order to explore the nature of seventeenth-century Dutch social relations. Looking at such widely divergent figures as schoolmasters, artisans, poets, and nobles, Irma Thoen compares seventeenth-century Dutch gifts with contemporary gift exchanges to show that both strategy and affection are necessary elements of any social relations--and that what changes most is not the system but the discourse of exchange.
Sarah Fourie kry halfvier op ’n koue wintersoggend ’n oproep van Mosela Mosholi, ’n ou vriendin uit haar tronkdae. Sarah moet nóú kom, Kaapstad toe. Datameester Mosi se rekenaars voorspel ’n vierde moord op ’n toeris binne die volgende paar dae en Sarah met haar kuberkrakerkennis moet kom help. Sarah kan nie nee sê nie. Sy ken Mosi al jare lank, en haar skuld is groot. Sy sleep haarself uit die bed, gryp ’n oornagsak, en bel vir Jaap. Want Jaap Reyneke moet saam – sy jare as polisieman is al raad wat sy het indien ’n moordenaar in die moederstad skuil. Dit is ’n onvoorspelbare, donker Kaapstad wat op Jaap en Sarah wag. ’n Stad waarin misdadigers die toutjies trek, waar hommeltuie bokant jou stilweg tred hou van goeie én minder goeie dade, en toeriste salig onbewus is van dit wat in Clifton en Kampsbaai broei. Nog ’n verbluffende roman deur die meester-krimiskrywer Irma Venter.
Afgetrede polisieman Jaap Reyneke vra Sarah Fourie, ’n rekenaargenie met ’n kriminele rekord, om die raaisel rondom die dood van sy peetdogter, Janien Steyn, op te los. Janien was op die oog af geliefd, ’n suksesvolle kunstenaar met ’n slag vir besigheid, en op die punt om met haar universiteitsliefde te trou. Was dit selfdood of moord? Waarom is die toneel om haar liggaam so sorgvuldig, amper kunstig, gerangskik? En hoekom is haar rekenaar se geheue voor die tyd so sorgvuldig skoongevee?
n Opwindende nuwe spanningsverhaal deur die skrywer van Skoenlapper. Journalis Alex Derksen verdwyn terwyl hy 'n storie oor 'n mynsindikaat dek. Sy hacker vriendin, Sarah, spoor Ranna Abrahamson in Indie op en oorreed haar om na Suid-Afrika terug te keer. Sarah hou vol dat sy Alex slegs met Ranna se hulp kan opspoor. Haar motiewe is egter nie heeltemal suiwer nie. Ranna moet die traumatiese aand van haar pa se dood onthou om die buit van ’n lank vergete rooftog kan opspoor en so Alex se lewe te red.
Ranna Abramson wants to disappear. But she knows she can’t keep running when a former enemy tracks her down in Mumbai with dire news: her onetime lover, journalist Alex Derksen, has disappeared back home in South Africa. Torn between her desire for him and fear of a homecoming, Ranna knows she’s the only one who can find him. But only two things in South Africa would welcome her—the inside of a cell or the bottom of a grave. There, to the police she’s the prime suspect in three murders. To the press, she’s the Black Widow serial killer. Despite her instinct to stay away, Ranna makes the journey. But the key to finding Alex lies in her painful past. And to uncover it, she’ll need to unravel a web of secrets tied to a long-forgotten crime. Even if she finds Alex before it’s too late, Ranna must answer for past sins…or risk losing him forever.
Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact.

Offering conceptual, empirical and policy contributions from leading international scholars in the field, this comprehensive Handbook investigates a broad range of innovations and new approaches to tourism aimed at enhancing sustainability. Examining the ongoing competitiveness that exists in 21st Century tourism within a global market environment, chapters expand the debate on how innovation can tackle current challenges including providing clean energy and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. With climate change and environmental degradation intensifying, this Handbook reviews the urgent system changes needed, as well as considering social dimensions in order to provide cohesion between innovation and tourism. Furthermore, it highlights the important role of policy and governance to allow collective action for the public good while paying greater attention to human values. Researchers and scholars of tourism studies, including tourism management and tourism geography, will find the suggested innovations and debates informative and illustrative. This innovative Handbook will also be an excellent guide for practitioners and policy-makers embedding new and improved 'ways of doing' to promote and provide for sustainable tourism.
The volume has as primary focus multidimensional gas chromatography (heart-cutting systems, comprehensive 2D-GC systems and hybrid solutions) and its characteristic features for in depth investigation of complex fractions of odor-active volatiles. Contributions, from outstanding researchers in the field from Academia and industry, cover fundamentals aspects on the physiology of olfaction, the strategies to identify key-odorants from the bulk of detectable volatiles (sensomics), the principles of operation of multidimensional analytical platforms (i.e., comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography - GCxGC; heart-cut 2D-GC, hybrid systems), and the fundamental role of mass spectrometry in providing reliable and informative data. Insights on new systems design and configurations are also provided, including sample preparation and data processing strategies, as important steps of the whole analytical process. Real-world examples cover food volatiles, complex aroma mixtures, odors emitted from industrial plants, volatiles of interest in forensic and medical applications. |
