Ten dark tales before bedtime

The collection contains ten stories with / about ten different characters / events, from an adulterous dentist from Bloemendaal to a futuristic black Sinterklaas. All are stories with a "corner", and one is more credible than the other. The common thread that they all have in common is: retaliation, envy, revenge and always a little bit of money. Nothing happens with impunity… or does it?

Some stories respond to current events (De coffee plantation and De Zwarte Sinterklaas), refer to history (The big step backwards) or are taken from life (Three years ago).

The stories are very diverse in subject, but all very excitingly written and built up from a blood-curdling, hilarious, surprising or a plot full of gloating, with or without a twist!

Dharma: everything has a price

Louis Jansen is a detective with the Amsterdam police and loses his wife Miranda as a result of a cycling accident. Louis cannot stay with himself and drinks more than is good for him. He neglects himself, his job and piles up one complaint after another, so that Internal Affairs can do nothing but start an investigation and he is put on hold for six months.

In these six months he completely changes course, resigns as a detective, becomes a furniture maker and decides to travel to France to a village with the beautiful name "Le Puits Sacré". Through an advertisement he found a beautiful large old workshop with housing. With horse Henny, dog Jack and a covered wagon loaded with wood, he travels to the "special" village. The meeting with the salesman of the workshop and the adjoining maisonette Monsieur Dupac and his wife Cécile went well and Louis closed the sale.

He lives in the village, is initiated into its secrets, finds love again and is successful as a furniture maker. But everything is not what it seems: dark forces / forces populate the village!

Will Louis escape from his new straitjacket? Will the truth be revealed?

The operation leads to the discovery of a new, technologically advanced weapon that Mossad is unaware of.

A race against time starts ...
