About this listen
In Afrikaans. Vyf vreemdelinge kry ’n aanbod: Gaan hou ’n maand lank vakansie op ’n afgesonderde eiland. Die beloning? Vir elk ’n bedrag wat steier aan die nulle. Die weldoener? ’n Anonieme, eksentrieke miljoenêr en eienaar van Drakeneiland. Aanvanklik ’n avontuur, weldra ’n nagmerrie in die hart van die hel – dis Gasheer van Drakeneiland. Wat soek ’n laboratorium in ’n grot in die middel van nêrens? Wie is hul gesiglose gasheer wat net ’n stem oor ’n luidspreker bly? Watter duiwelse eksperimente voer die professor uit? Erger as die gif van dié eksperimente in proefkonyn ná proefkonyn se bloedstroom, is die gif van wantroue in Irma Bruwer: Kan sy Anton de Woud, met sy donker broeiende sjarme, vertrou? Of is hy kop in een mus met die professor? Speel hy toneel en wat is sy rol? Héérlike luisterstof, voorgelees deur die stemkunstenaar Frieda van den Heever.
Please note: This audiobook is in Afrikaans.

Story
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.

Plekkie in die son, dis al wat Karen Viljoen vra. Maar die pragtige donkerkop is melaats verklaar... Dié oordeel dryf haar uit haar huis, haar droomhuwelik met Otto, haar baba – tot in Genadendal, inrigting vir melaatses. Kan Otto se liefde dié vuurproef deurstaan? Daar is Beatrice, en die wette van die natuur. Selfs al word Karen dalk eendag genees verklaar, sal die gemeenskap haar nie maar weer verwerp nie?

Lira kan feitlik enige gebreekte ding mooi of bruikbaar maak, maar met liefdesverhoudings vaar sy minder goed. Veral waar daar kinders betrokke is. Sy het geen benul hoe om ʼn ma te wees nie. Tog het sy geglo sy sal iets kan uitwerk wat waarde toevoeg tot Frank en Debbie se lewe. Dit is egter die een upcycling-projek waarin sy jammerlik misluk het. Sy beland op Vywerbaai waar sy ʼn winkeltjie vir haar upcycle-produkte wil oopmaak. Die finansiële risiko's wat sy neem is enorm en teenspoed bly nie uit nie, maar sy bly vasberade - upcycle gaan sy haar lewe upcycle.

Dit is Simone se annus horribilis. Op vier en veertig stap sy vir die tweede keer uit n huwelik, bankrot, werkloos, moedeloos, verbrysel. Al wat sy het om van vier en veertig jaar te wys, is n bedenklike verlede, n tienerseun wat skaars met haar praat, en die besef van mislukking en ontoereikendheid wat soos n meulsteen om haar nek hang. Al waarheen sy het om te gaan, is die kleinburgerlike dorp op die Oos-Vrystaatse platteland waar sy grootgeword het, waar haar konserwatiewe ma en konvensionele suster haar gedurig aan haar tekortkominge kan herinner. Rock bottom, dis waar sy is.

Johnnie Rico never really intended to join up—and definitely not the infantry. But now that he’s in the thick of it, trying to get through combat training harder than anything he could have imagined, he knows everyone in his unit is one bad move away from buying the farm in the interstellar war the Terran Federation is waging against the Arachnids. Because everyone in the Mobile Infantry fights. And if the training doesn’t kill you, the Bugs are more than ready to finish the job.
