This delightful book presents a slice of our South African maritime history examined and made palatable for young readers. The Mystery of the SS Waratah and the Avocado Tree is based on the true unsolved mystery dating back to 1909, the disappearance of the steamer remains one of the most baffling nautical teenager post mysteries of all time. The author has woven a story around the historical facts, involving present day children doing research of their own.
She says: Everyone else in my life was always the writer – from my first husband, to the authors I promoted and whose books I marketed at Ravan Press and David Philip Publishers – and to my colleagues, the journalists, at The Weekly Mail and Mail and Guardian .
