Please accept my apologies! In some former books, I'd announced this book

to be titled with 'No Fun' but I changed it to 'The man with the yellow sneakers'.

 

 

THE BOOK

 

Life in Coolum Beach is never boring for the Kuhlmann family. Despite occasional bouts of homesickness, they enjoy living in this Australian coastal town, especially since they have found great new friends among humans and dogs.

But they are horrified when somebody discovers the body of a young man in a strange outfit. Why does he have a flipper on his right foot, more than a kilometre away from the nearest beach?

The victim was a seventeen-year-old vegan, committed to animal welfare and nature conservation. Why was he killed?

 

Coming across some creepy people, the Kuhlmanns are starting to feel a bit anxious. And somehow, they become entangled in dangerous events that are connected to the mysterious murder case.

 

Bra over Jumper - My Mum has Alzheimer's

 

Michael, 47 years of age, is living on the Sunshine Coast in Queensland, in a beautiful part of Australia. However, his life is not always cheerful. After fifteen years of marriage, his wife Tina wants to split up and stay in their house. Fortunately, he finds a small rental property and keeps the company of his beloved dog. But he becomes increasingly worried about his mother in Brisbane, since she suffers from Alzheimer's disease. One day she almost starts a kitchen fire by accident. What should he do? He and his brother have to find a solution, and fast!

Just when Michael thinks he has everything under control, a mysterious murder happens nearby. Someone finds a half-naked, lifeless woman in a park in Coolum Beach. Who killed her, and why? Michael is horrified, as Tina is living in this normally peaceful seaside town. It turns out that the murdered woman was a nurse named Maureen. But many months pass by without any hints about the culprit and his motive. Maureen's sister and her parents are inconsolable.

Michael and Tina can't forget the gruesome deed either, and Tina is more anxious than ever before. And then an acquaintance of them disappears without a trace.

Meanwhile, Michael's mother no longer recognises her own sons.
