Produktbeschreibung

NOTHING BUT THE PURE TRUTH

DON'T ASK FOR SUGAR is a spiritual and humorous novel of love, crime and espionage that only real life can write. Learn from the dearly paid missteps of a European globetrotter in the Australian desert and from his fantastic trips to Asia, until you regain consciousness in an East German prison cell, - after a stopover in Moscow. But what happened last in HOW IT ALL BEGINS, the first book in the series?

It's late November 1985 and the sun is brooding like a giant frying pan over the West Australian megacity of Perth, where Suzanne is modelling for art students at the university while Christoph, who adores his Suzanne and has no work permit, lays glowing hot bricks in the blazing sun. As soon as the two of them are among themselves, their hormones also boil until their patience runs out after months of quarrelling with their jealous main tenant Janet. Their new landlady Kelly big heart, small garden, eight emaciated chickens and a shaggy Austrian who grows marijuana in the outback is happy to have company and feeds them with her home-baked biscuits.

One day, Suzanne learns from a friend that a fortune teller with extraordinary psychic abilities is appearing in Fremantle's little chapel, to which anyone interested in spirituality is cordially invited. Now the time has come, the two are sitting at the very back of the small chapel and now it's their turn.

"I welcome two new guests into our midst today," says the seer, holding Suzanne's hand up. "I see your future clearly," she calls out so loudly that it echoes in the small chapel. "Great changes are in store for you. Soon you will live even further south, bear a son and pursue an ancient labour." The seer knew more than either of them, but as she grasps Christoph's hands, her arm suddenly begins to tremble. "Oh my God!" she exclaims in horror, "I see dark powers and sinister demons!" A murmur goes through the rows. "In a distant place, you will be put to a severe test," the seer continues, "only God can save your soul, be vigilant and pray!"

Everyone turns round, and although Christoph is determined not to believe in such hoaxes, he suddenly feels like a bad person. Is Christoph possessed by evil spirits? Cold sweat trickles down his forehead.

"Chris, you're worrying me!"

"Don't worry, Suzanne, I don't hear any evil voices yet." The event is dissolved in no time, the two drive to the marketplace with mixed feelings and load the fruit and vegetables already sorted out by the farmers into their car boot.

Autorenporträt

Bernhard Christoph Lichtinger was born into a family of doctors in Stuttgart (southern Germany) on July 21, 1961, the fifth of six sons. The author, family man, craftsman, autodidact, inventor and entrepreneur attended one kindergarten, 10 schools, countless countries and 2 East German prisons. Released to Baden-Württemberg after 341 days of miserable food (on Friday, November 13, 1987), Christoph taught himself computer-aided drawing. He first freelanced for the IBM chip factory and then for the sports car fanatic architect Bernd Frank. After he managed to finance his parents' property, Christoph founded his own residential construction company in 1995, which was hit hard by the global financial crisis 13 years later (2008), whereupon he lost everything except the old villa that belonged to him and his second great love Dorothee. After his divorce, Christoph found his first great love Suzanne on the internet and flew to New Zealand to meet her in August 2015. And yes, it is true love! Six months later, Christoph has a little more time again and begins to write down his story ...

By now nine years in New Zealand, the last six years Christoph slept, worked and cooked in his camper, he closed his book again at the end of September 2024 to fly towards his two sons Adrian and Leon with his dog Rosie. Somewhere between the South and North Poles, he wants to write the next chapters of his stories because he was abandoned by all evil spirits after his release from the East German labour camp and is now only afraid of overflowing letterboxes.
