Jacana Media (Pty) Ltd Miss Kwa Kwa 2: The dark side of the braai
The braai is so much more than a social event or a meal. It is a ritual, an experience, perhaps the closest thing to a meditative state many of us will achieve. Even the vegetarians know that. Sometimes, however, things get burned, fights break out and somebody gets naked. And covered in potato salad. What does this have to do with the book you're scanning curiously? MK has a big problem - she has woken up a week later than she went to bed. Somebody has been feeding her cat. She has no explanation for it, but is smart enough to know it can't be good. In Johannesburg and Cape Town, sinister plots are afoot, and MK - no stranger to the deep end - may just be in over her head. The lady usually causing all the trouble now faces it from all sides - political fanatics, a Hollywood party girl, a secret agent, and most diabolical of all - local television.

Jacana Media (Pty) Ltd Miss Kwa Kwa: Traditional weapon
Miss Kwa Kwa (or MK) is learning that in a country supposedly so black-and-white, there are a million shades of grey - 'Coconuts', 'Wiggas' and 'Buppies' are a few examples. But behind the simple facade of the rural, charming Miss Kwa Kwa lies a mind as sharp as a panga and just as deadly - and somewhere in this Rainbow Nation is a pot of gold with her name on it. Unaware that several people are chasing her, MK begins stalking a politician who has just checked his wife into rehab. Utterly charmed by MK, he takes her to the top-secret Studio 94 with its exclusive clientele. Throw in coincidence/fate, skulduggery, a crazed prostitute named Leeyann, a terrifying thunderstorm and a blackout, and it's a recipe for disaster. Everything comes to a head at Studio 94, resulting in comeuppance, fame and an unusual romance. And Miss Kwa Kwa becomes the host of her own new talk show called Kwa Kwa Konfidential.
