Thirtieth Birthdays loom ...Skeletons come creeping out closets ...How will this Birthday end? Linda has just cast off yet another lover, while Dikeledi can't seem to pin her fast-talking lawyer down to talk about marriage. Nolwazi has a secret - one she can't share even with her closest friends, while Sade has found the perfect man, and a new life that will shut out the horrors of her past forever. Or will it ...? Linda, Dikeledi, Nolwazi and Sade are about to discover more than the wisdom that comes with being a year older. After all, they're young, gifted and black in a booming new South Africa.Author of the popular thriller, Red Ink, Angela Makholwa turns her humour and skill for page-turning suspense to the escapades and sexual misadventures of modern women as they search for happiness - and hope for love.
Rezensionen / Stimmen
'From an author who has a wicked sense of humour comes a skilfully written must-read for any woman who winces at the idea of celebrating the "big 3-0" ...' - Futhi Ntshingila 'Angela Makholwa has managed to weave the suspense beautifully right through to the very last chapter. Reading this book was like watching a skilled painter fill a blank canvas with a picture embedded with 1 001 lessons.' - Tshego Tlhapi
