CHAPTER ONE I sn’t life funny ? Y ou know , how one t hing l eads to another in a way you just don’t expect. That Sunday morning, I was in my kitchen stir ring my apricot jam in the cast-ir on pot. I t was another dry summer’ s day in the Klein Ka roo, and I was gl ad for the breeze coming in the window . “You smell lovely,” I told the appelkooskonfyt.
