Produktbeschreibung

.This novel is the first book in the Barracuda Night Club trilogy. A chance meeting with a striking young Coloured woman that took place in Kalamazoo changed the course of Aaron's life. On previous occasion he had seen the young woman several times before at Mass at St Dominic's Catholic Church in Boksburg. What made her conspicuous were the unusual mantillas she used to cover her head with during communion on Sundays. It is possible that if she did not wear those colourful mantillas she would never have caught his attention. During the times that her family visited St Dominic's on Sundays he sensed her presence in the church and he always felt this strong irresistible compulsion to seek her out in the congregation in order to catch a glimpse of her face.

Autorenporträt

As a son of a miner, I was born in Johannesburg, South Africa. I grew up in the East Rand mining town of Boksburg. I matriculated from Boksburg High School. After high school, I was conscripted into the South African Defence Force for compulsory national military service when I was 17 years old. After my military service, I went to the University of the Witwatersrand. After graduating with a BSc honours degree I worked for a short period for the Department of Agriculture in Potchefstroom as an agronomist. As an obligatory member of the South African Citizen Miltary Force, I was called up to do 3-month camps on the 'Border' which was the theatre of the so-called counter-insurgency 'Bush War'. In between postgraduate university studies I also worked as a wage clerk on the South African Railways and as a travelling chemical sales rep. In my career as an academic, I was a molecular biologist at the University of the Witwatersrand, where I lectured courses in microbiology, molecular biology, biotechnology and evolutionary biology. On the research side, I was involved in genomics, and plant and microbial biotechnology. I also conducted research into the genomics of strange and weird animals known as entomopathogenic nematodes. I retired in 2019, however, I am currently an honorary professor at the University of the Witwaterand and I also work as a research writing consultant for the University of Johannesburg.
