In Rudie se eerste Kassie Kasselman-roman, Slagyster, ontmoet ons vir Carl Bester, gevalle oudspeurder. In Vloek is Carl terug.

Hy moet ’n lykbesaaide saak van internasionale belang help ontrafel. Nou sal hy weer soos ’n volbloedspeurder moet redeneer om dié saak saam met ’n spul rookies op te los.

’n Baie lang brief aan my dogter is Marita van der Vyver, een van Afrikaans se mees geliefde skrywers, se ontroerende jeugmemoires.

En bowenal is dit ’n ma se poging om sin te maak van hierdie onverskillige en wrede wêreld waarin sy haar nou begewe.

Elf wrede moorde oor ’n tydperk van vier jaar ruk die gemeenskap van Krugersdorp en haal landwyd nuusopskrifte.

Bart, die aantreklikste ou in haar matriekklas, soen Esli uit haar vel. Vir meer as veertig jaar deel hulle hul lewens, maak saam kinders groot en sien om na vriende en familie. Jaarliks vier hulle Kersfees in Kleinmond met geskenke en trifle en stappies langs die see met hul worshond. Maar hoekom val Bart se broer uit ’n boom voor Esli se ouerhuis? En watter donker geheim is onderliggend aan Bart se ma se vreemde gedrag en onfatsoenlike grappe?

Erin se dogter wat op ses verdwyn het, klop 20 jaar later aan haar deur. Maryna praat vlotter Chinees as Afrikaans, sy is grotesk, het ’n daggagewoonte, is stuurs en stil. Erin is nie ’n emosionele mens nie, haar greep op die werklikheid is glibberig en sy praat moeilik oor haar gevoelens. Sy is obsessief oor die man wat haar verlaat het en die jeugvriend wat steeds na haar hunker. Hoe gemaak met die kuiken wat onder haar vlerk uit gesteel is, wat deur vreemdelinge hanteer is sodat sy haar reuk nie meer eien nie, wat grootgeword en tuisgekom het om te broei?

Kassie het geglo sy speurderdae is getel ná die Medusa-pedofielsaak, en sy hartaanval. Maar ses maande tuis bring perspektief - hy is ’n speurder in murg en been. Terug by die Spookeenheid word hy en kollega Rooi Els dadelik by die diep kant ingegooi: Hulle moet ’n reeksverkragter vastrek - een wat sy slagoffers met ’n brandyster merk. Is die skuldige die man wat beskryf word as “’n weerwolf met die sperm van ’n wildehond”? Of lê die antwoord by die spesifieke merk wat hy op sy slagoffers laat?

Dis die laat tagtigs in Johannesburg. Adriana van der Hoon is agtien. Haar aktivis-pa het jare lank oorsee geld vir die Education Trust ingesamel, en nou staan die veiligheidspolisie op haar drumpel met 'n ultimatum. In Berlyn leer sy oorleef. Dis waar sy haar talent om messe te gooi vervolmaak, en waar sy Yasen Todorov ontmoet. Hier, weg van alles wat bekend is, leer Adriana dat mens oor alles kan onderhandel, ook jou onskuld.

Opspraakwekkende moorde uit die mooie Stellenbosch het die land oor die afgelope twee dekades geskok. Die gesoute joernalis Julian Jansen praat met familie en vriende van die slagoffers, kry toegang tot geslote polisiedossiere en onthul nuwe inligting waaroor daar nog nie vantevore berig is nie. Hier vertel hy die verhale, nie net van die bekende slagoffers nie, maar ook van iemand soos die plaaswerker Felicity Cilliers–’n vrou van wie die wêreld byna vergeet het.

Speurder Ella Neser stel ondersoek in nadat vier voete in 'n Checkers-sak in 'n openbare tuin gevind word. Lou Pepler, eks-polisieman, nou sekuriteitskonsultant, glo dit hou verband met 'n saak wat hy 20 jaar gelede ondersoek het—die verdwyning van Billy Katz, rykmanseun en rokjagter. Ella se soektog lei na 'n begrafnisonderneming in Turffontein en die Pottas-familie. Maar hoe hou die voete verband met Billy Katz se verdwyning en die saak wat Lou sy loopbaan en amper sy lewe gekos het?

Mirre weet Marilyn is reg, maar ʼn Dreyer skei nie. En as sy hom aankla van huishoudelike geweld, sal hy nooit weer sy beroep as befaamde huweliksberader kan volg nie. Sy reputasie sal vernietig wees. En dít sal hy haar nooit vergewe nie. Buitendien, sy verstaan waar die ‘beast’ in haar andersins sjarmante man vandaan kom. Maar sy weet ook dat sy volgende keer dalk nie ʼn aanranding sal oorleef nie. Mirre gaan skuil by haar vriendin Corali op Vywerbaai, waar Boeta Naudé met sy vrou en drie seuns ook woon.

’n Moord by die Kaapse Waterfront. Wat dalk skakel met geheimsinnige briewe wat geskorste luitenante Bennie Griessel en Vaughn Cupido ontvang het. Maar eers moet Bennie-hulle op Stellenbosch soek na ’n verdwene student, en die spoor vat van die eiendomsagent wat die kooptransaksie van Donkerdrif, korporatiewe swendelaar Jasper Boonstra se peperduur wynplaas, behartig het. En al hul ondersoeke het ’n gemene deler: die donkerste drif, gierigheid.

Kassie Kasselman is kriewelrig. Sy lewe lank poeliesman gewees, maar wragtag, wat hy nóú alles in die media oor sy geliefde SAPD lees. En met sy eie oë sién ook, in kolonel Daniels se kantoor by die Nuweland-stasie. Kassie het juis ’n ander werksaanbod gehad.... En dan moet dit natuurlik só kom dat hy in die middel van sy loopbaankrisis teen die grieseligste moordenaar nóg te staan kom. Die Pion se moordloopbaan het tentakels wat terugstrek na die Apartheidsera, met moderner euwels soos die Afrika-handel in vervalste medikasie wat ook Kassie se aandag verg.

Stella Bennet van die plaas Ommekeer het drie dogters—en hulle het probleme. Niemand sal Julia glo dat sy in haar huwelik verbaal mishandel word nie. Niemand sal begryp dat Pauli verlief is op die verkeerde man nie. Veral aangesien sy so ’n verstandige man aan haar sy het. Niemand sal ooit weet hoe broos Teresa is nie. Want sy is hierdie hardekwas advokaat wat geen man nodig het nie.
