Review Thrillers to get the adrenalin going
Two books ... four gripping
James Patterson stories
One new thriller from James Patterson is great. When
there are three ... bonus! The House Next Door contains
a trio of gripping chillers – each in print for the first time.
The House Next Door (with Susan DiLallo) revolves
around married mother of four, Laura Sherman, who was
thrilled when her new neighbour invited her on some
errands. But a few quick tasks became a long lunch –
and now things could go too far with a man who isn’t
what he seems. In The Killer’s Wife (with Max DiLallo),
six girls have gone missing and Detective McGrath
knows the only way to find them is to get close to the
suspect’s wife. Maybe too close! In The Witnesses (with
Brendan DuBois), the Sanderson family has been forced
into hiding after one of them stumbled upon a criminal
plot. Or so they think. No one will answer their ques-
tions. And the terrifying truth may come too late. That’s

20 Get It Joburg West June 2019Advice from the pro:
Ennis Garden Centre’s Sonja du
Plessis offers the following advice:
Mulch in winter to protect against
frost damage. It will keep roots warm,
moist and also adds nutrients to
the soil. Choosing the right mulch
is essential. Compost is a excellent
mulching medium, but you can also
use bark chips, nut shells, pebbles
and gravel. Avoid over-mulching – a
10cm layer of mulch is sufficient. Do
not dig the mulch into the soil, and
remove excess mulch from around
the stems of young plants to prevent
stem-rot. Mulching also improves
weed control, soil structure and
drainage. Indoor/ patio plant …
Anthuriums are virtually indestructible and almost
never without flowers. We love soft pink, the colour
of a flamingo, which is the other name for the
anthurium. Plants like a warm room and bright
light, but not direct sunlight. Let the soil dry out
moderately between watering. If the leaves turn
yellow (but not brown and withered), this may be a
sign of overwatering. Anthurium plants are long-
lasting indoor plants that also help to keep the air
clean, especially in winter. The heart-shaped flowers
and glossy leaves add a tropical touch. Just pop the
plant into a simple, elegant container for instant
décor. Details: Visit www.plantimex.co.za.
Garden tasks:
• Plant out winter-flowering annuals like pansies, violas,
petunias (summer rainfall areas) alyssum, and fairy
