Skældyrsjægerne

Der er ingen vej tilbage, efter Liva falder over en ulovlig organisation for handel med vilde dyr i nærheden af sit nye hjem i Sydafrika. Sammen med sin bror Carl og sin nye ven Andile er de hurtigt igang med at forsøge at afsløre de ansvarlige. Dette kaster dem ind i den kriminelle underverden af ulovlig handel med truede dyr, og en vanvittig mission fuld af farer for at redde de dødsdømte dyr.

Skældyrsjægerne følger trioens tempofyldte eventyr, som blandt andet render ind i en korrupt politibetjent og den vietnamesiske forbryderboss. De må kæmpe for deres liv i grotter, på åbent hav… og i skolen.

Men intet er umuligt med lidt afrikansk magi!

The Pangolin Killers

Along with her brother Carl and new friend Andile, they are soon at the forefront of trying to expose those responsible.

About Me

In my 20s, I moved from Denmark to England, Egypt, Uganda and eventually ended in South Africa. The magic of Africa has kept me in Cape Town ever since. I live here with my husband Olaf and our three children, Lena, Nils and Thor. We agreed to one pet, but so far have two dogs, a cat and a hamster.

I love kayaking and paddle boarding, and wish I had learned to surf as my kids do! I have a background in law and business, which takes me on exciting trips into Africa. Before that, I worked as a lawyer with NGOs in Egypt and Uganda. The Pangolin Killers is inspired by Congolese colleagues, who introduced me to African herbs, so I could attract a husband. (It clearly worked!).

When I am not in South Africa, I spend time with my family in Denmark. I want to bring this diverse and colourful African continent onto kids’ bookshelves with entertainment and action stories based on real topics. The first book in the Into Africa series takes place in South Africa. The next book will be set in Congo and Uganda.
