Droomland
Ruby se pynlikste begeerte is om te weet wie haar pa was – of is. Nóg haar loopbaan as loopplankmodel, nóg haar gesogte modereeks kan vergoed vir hierdie leegheid in haar lewe. Of dit die oorsaak van haar slaaplopery is, weet sy nie maar toe haar ma sterf, neem sy hierdie geheim saam met haar graf toe. Ná haar ma se begrafnis vlam die hoop egter onverwags op. Sy moet die welmenende raad van die dorp se gehate ou sedeprediker verduur en haar ma se prokureur oorhandig ’n juwelekissie met ’n sleutel aan haar. En toe ’n jeugkennis weer sy verskyning maak, weet Ruby hierdie man bedreig haar goed bewaarde hart. Dit is ook hy wat haar oortuig om elke leidraad wat sy nou gekry het op te volg en nie nee vir ’n antwoord te neem nie. Maar elke paadjie waarop sy haar begeef, lei na ’n doodloopstraat. Monsters wat mens uit die verlede gaan haal, moes dalk gebly het waar hulle was – die hede is al wat jy eintlik het en jy moet daarmee woeker.

How we describe the condition of our books
We are very proud of the condition of the books we sell (please read our testimonials to find out more!)
New: Exactly as it says.
As New: Pretty much new but shows small signs of having been read; inside it will be clean without any inscriptions or stamps; might contain a remainder mark.
Very Good: Might have some creases on the spine; no hard cracks; maybe slight forward lean and short inscription inside; perhaps very minor bumping on the corners of the book; inside clean but the page edges might be slightly yellowed.
Good: A few creases on the spine, perhaps a forward lean, bumping on corners or shelfwear; maybe an inscription inside or some shelfwear or a small tear or two on the dustjacket; inside clean but page edges might be somewhat yellowed.
Fair: In overall good condition, might have a severe forward lean to the spine, an inscription, bumping to corners; one or two folds on the covers and yellowed pages; in exceptional cases these books might contain some library stamps and stickers or have neat sticky tape which was used to fix a short, closed tear.
Poor: We rarely sell poor condition books, unless the books are in demand and difficult to find in a better condition. Poor condition books are still perfect for a good read, all pages will be intact and none threatening to fall out; most probably a reading copy only.
