paperback in nette staat, opbrengst gaat naar dierenasiel göcek in turkije

as delightfully wry and witty as his bestselling debut, 'the hundred-year-old man who climbed out the window and disappeared', this is a tale of how one woman's attempt to change her future ended up changing everything. Nombeko mayeki is on the run from the world's most ruthless secret service - with three chinese sisters, twins who are officially one person and an elderly potato farmer. Oh, and the fate of the king of sweden - and the world - rests on her shoulders. Born in a soweto shack in 1961, nombeko was destined for a short, hard life. When she was run over by a drunken engineer her luck changed. Alive, but blamed for the accident, she was made to work for the engineer - who happened to be in charge of a project vital to south africa's security. Nombeko was good at cleaning, but brilliant at understanding numbers. The drunk engineer wasn't - and made a big mistake. And now only nombeko knows about it ...As uproariously funny as jonas jonasson's bestselling debut, this is an entrancing tale of luck, love and international relations.
