Die Respektabele Meneer Hartslief
Wanneer ’n nagklubbaas die katelknaap van sy minnares laat vermoor deur ’n eksentrieke huurmoordenaar, loop hy hom vas in die vermoorde se familie, die Hartslief-clan van Brixton. Elie Hartslief is die brein; Antie Engel met haar sopkombuis en sesde sintuig die hart; neef Boela met die slaghuis, die spiere; en die verfynde Moks met sy helderkleurige mohican en daggakoekies die bek. Elie is deesdae amper respektabel en mnr. Morkel van Morkel Wealth se regterhand, maar sy broer se moord noodsaak dat die Hartsliefs laer trek. Maar hulle teenstanders is die berugte Bogdan Petrescu en sy huurmoordenaar Lood – ’n man met ’n voorliefde vir saksofoonmusiek en ’n aanleg om mense op kreatiewe maniere dood te maak. Dink Coen-broers en Westerns in Brixton en Sandton. Karsten-noir uit die boonste rakke!

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.
