Johan Marais verlaat skool op ouderdom 16 om by die polisie aan te sluit. Wanneer hy in die tagtigerjare oorgeplaas word na die Oos-Randse Onluste-eenheid, is hy ’n geharde polisieman en sukkel hy reeds met ’n drankprobleem. Hy is ’n ooggetuie van verskeie voorvalle van polisiebrutaliteit. Hy ontken egter deurgans die uitwerking van al die trauma op sy persoonlike lewe.Later verlaat hy die polisie om sy eie skrootonderneming te begin, maar die simptome van post-traumatiese stres steek kop uit. Sy huwelik loop op die rotse en hy begin om Pretoria se plesierhuise te besoek en verhuur selfs sy dienste uit as “nutsman”. Soos hy afgaan in ’n maalkolk van depressie en fisieke pyn weens sy drankmisbruik, eksperimenteer hy ook met dwelms. Hy pleeg amper selfmoord voordat hy teenoor homself erken dat hy hulp nodig het.Marais het dié boek geskryf om sy duiwels te besweer. Sy eerlike, reguit vertelling getuig vol rou menslikheid. Dit skok en gryp jou terselfdertyd aan die hart.

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.
