2. THE MISSING GIRL - FABEL RETIEF SERIES
 
Fabel Retief, the legendary former detective, has exchanged the perilous streets of Johannesburg for the tranquil Lowveld. He is done with the world of crime, but the photograph of a missing girl in the morning paper, the beautiful Rita Grimbeeck, refuses to leave him in peace. Her smile and bright eyes haunt him, and when his old colleague, Captain Valk Mare, appears unexpectedly and asks for his help, Fabel is irrevocably drawn back into the underworld he had tried to leave behind. What initially appears to be a simple disappearance quickly unravels into a web of mysteries.
 
Who is the enigmatic new boyfriend, John Carlton, with his powerful red sports car? What is hidden behind the exotic Oriental dance lessons of the charming, yet suspicious Madame Lotte Riehmann? Her explanation that Rita is on an innocent pleasure cruise sounds too smooth, and Fabel’s sharp instincts warn him that deadly danger lurks beneath the surface. The case takes a bloody turn with a brutal murder and a dying message, “The Dolphin Jidda”. Suddenly, Fabel realizes he is not just searching for a man, but a phantom. A ruthless mastermind and a master of disguise who lures beautiful girls to an unthinkable fate.
 
In a desperate race against time, from the glittering lights of the city to the treacherous coast of Mozambique, Fabel must outwit his adversary. Will he be able to solve the riddle of the Dolphin before it is too late? And can one man stand against an international syndicate where betrayal and death lurk around every corner?

    "A somewhat silly, somewhat sexy, and definitely bizarre short story that will keep your attention all the way through." 
    - Amara Rethwisch, Netgalley Reviewer 
    "Crazy short story but fun. It was nothing like I expected in any way." - Tavia Malone, Netgalley Reviewer 
    In 2021, Amber James developed an unhealthy fascination with Old Saint Nick. 
    Ever since, she’s chosen boyfriends based solely on their ability to satisfy her Santaphilia. Unfortunately, she can’t find a man worthy to come down her chimney. After multiple fails, she gives up the search for a Santa-with-benefits, and that night, she has an erotic dream featuring the jolly elf himself. 
    She awakens happily, but as the days turn into months, Amber realizes she’s pregnant. 
    The only problem is no one seems to agree. Her roommate Shelly doesn’t see the baby bump or feel the kicks, and the doctor’s pregnancy tests and ultrasounds all come back negative. The results force Amber to face her worst fears about her bio mother and a past she’s worked hard to escape. 
    Angry and scared, she’s bounced from medical doctors to psychiatrists and even an Ufologist trying to understand what’s happening to her body. As Christmas morning approaches, Amber will discover the horrifying truth of what Santa left for her. 
    Santa’s Package is a darkly bizarre Christmas story.
