By Ernest Wit

Divorced and devastated over the loss of her small son, Eva falls ill with psoriasis. She lives alone and works from home. Simon desperately wants to get close to her again and uses the services of a certain young man. Paul pretends to be a burglar and lets Eva catch him red-handed. She is unaware of Simon's intrigue but has her own scheme. Paul is a good candidate for the unwitting father of her future child. But the young man has his own secrets. To complicate matters even more, there are things that cannot be controlled. Such as life and death.

This novel is about a normal life that is unique and unusual. This novel is about an unusual love that is common and ordinary.
