Family feuds, love triangles and loss: The Suidooster twists set to heat up your winter
Here are five twists to watch out for this May:
1. Trouble still looms for the Daniels family
After the nightmare caused by Carlo (Jadon Booysen), could there finally be light at the end of the tunnel? It seems Carlo is starting to realise he must face the consequences of his actions – and the police want answers, too. Nazeem (Irvine van der Merwe) is feeling the heat...
A critical decision about Carlo's future is on the table, but will Lee-Ann (Portia Joel) and Wade (Dean Smith) simply accept it – or fight back?
2. Bianca takes control – but at what cost?
Bianca (Simone Biscombe) has a powerful awakening and vows to reclaim her life. Siya (Gantane Kusch) offers to support her through her new battle with addiction, hoping to help her start afresh.
Meanwhile, Kate (Annelisa Weiland) drops a bombshell on Riaan (Daniel Coetzee) about his past with Bianca. Though he believes their moment has passed – and that Bianca isn't ready for love – this could spark a brand-new love triangle... especially since Siya may feel more than just friendship for her.
3. A fierce feud erupts at Pronk
Elana (Esther von Waltsleben) and Amore (Antoinette Louw) go head-to-head at Pronk, and things get downright ugly. Amore is not one to be underestimated – and Elana may find herself in a deep, dark hole she can't easily climb out of...
4. Bridgette faces a new reality
Bridgette (Denise Newman) starts to feel her age catching up with her, prompting some lifestyle changes – but could there be more to her condition? Sensing an opportunity, Nazeem is ready to exploit her vulnerability for his own gain.
5. A death rocks the Booysen brothers
A long-lost family member of Aiden (Theodore Jantjies) and Gary (Craig Adriaanse) passes away… but could one man's loss be another's gain? This twist may change the brothers' lives forever.

Egoli's Lindie Strydom and Anrich Herbst to shake up Suidooster
Lindie Strydom and Anrich Herbst will debut as Amanda and Mike van Wyk, a married couple, in the popular kykNET soap set in the fictional Cape Town suburb of Ruiterbosch. Despite both having roots in Egoli, this marks their first time acting opposite one another. Amanda, a renowned psychologist, and Mike represent a seemingly perfect marriage of 32 years, but as the story progresses, viewers will see cracks in their stability, with gripping and dramatic twists. Actors Lindie Strydom and Anrich Herbst will soon debut on kykNET soap Suidooster as married couple Amanda and Mike van Wyk. Lindie first stepped into the spotlight in 1997 when she was cast straight out of school as Karen Edwards in Egoli, while Anrich had his big break at the age of 15 as Wimpie in Orkney Snork Nie. He later played Dewald Vorster (from 1991 to 1995) in the same iconic M-Net soap. 'Like many other viewers, I got to know him as Wimpie from Orkney Snork Nie, and also as the voice behind so many TV and radio ads. He was involved in Egoli before me as Dewald Vorster, but our paths never crossed - until now,' says Lindie, who also became a household name as the presenter of the kykNET faith-based show Geloof, Hoop en Liefde. Supplied Now, for the first time, the two are heading together to Ruiterbosch - the fictional Cape Town suburb where Suidooster is set - making their first appearance on Wednesday, 6 August as Frankie's (Mienke Ehlers) parents. Amanda marks Lindie's first soap role since her Egoli days. 'Amanda is a well-known psychologist and relationship expert who has written several books,' Lindie says about her Suidooster character. 'At first glance, it seems Amanda and her husband Mike (Anrich), to whom she has been married for 32 years, are the perfect example of what a marriage should be. But as the storyline unfolds, we also see the less pleasant side of their apparent ease and predictable stability.' According to Anrich, developments in the storyline will leave viewers breathless. 'All I can say is: remember, it's just a story… but these kinds of things do happen,' he says. For Anrich, who recently appeared in the kykNET drama series Die Nuusmakers, it's been invigorating to step back into the world of soap operas. 'I enjoy the immediacy of the soap format. It did take me a few weeks to readjust to the techniques it requires,' he adds.

Four Canadian books you need to read this summer
Whether you're headed to the beach, the cottage or the backyard, it's always a good idea to take along a mixed bag of Canadian-made reading material. A Most Puzzling Murder Bianca Marais MIRA Famed enigmatologist Destiny Whip is faced with a life-and-death dilemma in this interactive novel, billed as 'a quirky, humorous locked-room murder mystery with riddles and puzzles for the reader to solve.' A reclusive orphan, Destiny is lured to a peculiar island castle with a promise that her family's deepest secrets will finally be revealed to her. Accepting a challenge to solve a series of mysteries surrounding the castle's enigmatic owners, the Scruffmore clan, she explores secret passages, decodes cryptic messages and discovers that one of the Scruffmores is in grave danger. A murder is afoot, and the intended victim's life is in Destiny's hands. The Paper Birds Jeanette Lynes HarperCollins Speaking of enigmas, did you know Canada had a Bletchley Park-like code-breaking operation during the Second World War? Canadian women who worked at the top-secret Ontario location were a remarkably tight-lipped bunch. When the war ended, they were told to never speak of their roles at Canada's first 'cryptographic bureau,' and many took the secret to the grave. When the bureau's existence was publicly acknowledged a few years back, author Jeanette Lynes (The Apothecary's Garden), was inspired to create fictional codebreaker Gemma Sullivan, a recent high-school graduate who lands a job at a bureau in Mimico, Ont., in 1943. Raised by her elderly, puzzle-loving Aunt Wren, Gemma's home life is complicated by the need for secrecy. Before long, her work life is complicated by a different secret — a budding relationship with a handsome German-Canadian prisoner of war held in a nearby PoW camp. Lowfield Mark Sampson Now or Never Publishing Divorced, insomniac New Brunswick cop Riley Fuller is haunted by a traumatic past event when he arrives in the village of Lowfield, on Prince Edward Island. Riley needs a quiet space to rest and heal. Little does he know there's likely to be more trauma in his future after he decides to restore a dilapidated old mansion that's been in his family for generations. Since the village was abandoned decades ago, and the house has sat empty for 60 years, there may be a good reason why nobody lives there. Well, maybe not a good reason — more likely a sinister one. Crash Test Amy James Avon Formula One race-car driver Travis Keeping's love life hits the skids when a multi-car crash leaves his boyfriend clinging to life in a French hospital. Travis and Formula 2 driver Jacob Nichols have kept their romance a secret for the past year, and it's beyond awkward when Travis meets the parents at Jacob's bedside. It's even more awkward when Jacob wakes up from a coma and realizes he has to make a heartbreaking choice — disappoint his homophobic family or put the brakes on his relationship. Either way, recovery is going to be the pits.
