Lemmer se eerste algemene wet: Moenie betrokke raak nie. Hy pas dit veral toe in sy werk as vryskut-lyfwag by Body Armour, waar hy laag af is op die pryslys, want hy's die een met die kriminele rekord, die gebrekkige sosiale vaardighede en die baie kort humeur. Wanneer die mooi, ryk Emma le Roux hom huur en begin vertel van onwaarskynlike bedreigings en 'n broer wat sy vas glo na twintig jaar soos 'n Lasarus uit die dood uit opgestaan het, stof hy ook 'n ander ou Wet af: Moenie klein vroue vertrou nie. Maar wat, welvarende mense lieg en as dit al gevaar is wat hy moet hanteer, dan vat hy die geld, baie dankie.
Daarom vlieg hy op 26 Desember saam met haar Laeveld toe – en so begin 'n koorsagtige tog deur 'n wereld van gierigheid en korrupsie, ekologiese stryde en sameswerings ... en moord. In 'n lokval skiet hulle boonop vir Emma. Lemmer het nog nooit as 'n lyfwag gefaal nie, en om sy vyande te identifiseer gaan lewensgevaarlik wees, want hul ontmaskering gaan internasionale implikasies he. Maar Lemmer is siek en sat daarvoor om onsigbaar te wees. Iemand moet betaal – en hy gaan nie rus voor die rekening nie vereffen is nie.

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.
