About this ebook
What are you served for dinner while in the company of a lecherous reverend, an aging beauty queen, a gay lottery presenter, a guru, a shrink, a few reporters, and an odd assortment of South African parodies? Why, dinner of course! The rest is just dessert!
This novel takes a quirky look at South Africa, its inhabitants, and the comedy that is politics. This is what some real South Africans are like. Some you may like, and they will be back in their own book series.
Do join us! Dinner is served, settle in, and get to know everyone at the table.
If you enjoy this novel, you may want to follow the characters, and read 'The Scandari Saga - Aeonosphere'.

Synopsis:
The Wynberghs are a well-to-do family. Rachel loves to socialise and throw fund-raisers, while her husband, Mervin loves to avoid them. Tonight, you will meet their guests.
Tom Scandari and Annie Wynbergh have a long-standing friendship that could blossom at any minute. Annie’s parents are determined to see her married and the pressure is on. This couple’s story continues into the series, ‘The Scandari Saga’, where Tom discovers the ‘Aeonosphere’ and travels through time.
Leticia and her husband Bingo are old friends of the family and have a marriage of convenience. Perhaps it is time they re-evaluated their relationship.
The Reverend has ulterior motives, and he arrives with a plan. A fund-raiser is an excellent way to fill the coffers.
The Guru has a few moves up his robe that leave Leticia panting. Can the socialite resist his magical charm or will she succumb to his poetic tongue?
Katherine and Ewyn tell an amusing tale involving a bloody axe. They both poke fun at each other and Katherine’s children, the monkeys.
Will Kathy and Mary venture beyond holding hands and go on a first date? Will Gareth’s head ever stop spinning like the balls of the lottery? Will Bingo hit the gay jackpot?
It’s just a day in the diary of typical South African ... or is it?
