The third instalment in the Tannie Maria Mystery crime series, is a delicious follow-up to the bestselling Recipes for Love and Murder and Tannie Maria and the Satanic Mechanic.
The new book is an intriguing mystery, a cozy romance and a heart-warming tale of friendship all in one. The entertaining novel has plenty of local humour and customs for South African readers to relish and it even includes some mouth-watering Karoo recipes.
Tannie Maria might be the Karoo’s favourite agony aunt, but when it comes to matters of her own heart, she doesn’t have all the answers. Why is she having trouble telling her beau – the dashing Detective Henk Kannemeyer with the chestnut moustache – that she loves him?
There are other, more pressing problems too. A tall, dark stranger zooms in on her Ducati motorbike: she is Zabanguni Kani, a journalist renowned for her political exposés, who, after receiving threats, moves in with Tannie Maria for safety.
And who could tell that a trip to the country’s northern parts was on the cards? The journey plunges Maria and her friends into pools of danger, amid water maidens, murders, and Harley Davidsons.
Ladismith’s famous crime fighter is back – with a tin of buttermilk rusks in hand – to restore peace from the Klein Karoo to the great Limpopo River. penguinrandomhouse.co.za
