Men hendes søgen efter svar bliver livsfarlig; og hvem er det egentlig, der jagter hvem?Sektens døtre er en spændingsroman inspireret af virkelige hændelser og en virkelig sekt.

Ja undskyld, men det er altså en historie om en lidt trist bedemand. - Og her er hvad man ved om bedemanden: Han gør hvad bedemænd gør, han ordner de døde, vasker dem, friserer dem, giver dem rent tøj på, putter dem i deres kister og lægger låget på. Og her er hvad man ikke ved om bedemanden: Han kan tale med de døde. Og de døde taler gerne om blomster og damers numser og schæferhunde og carporte og blæsevejr og alt det de ikke nåede ...Det med Paradis er noget bedemanden finder på for at trøste en ung pige der er død alt for tidligt. Men måske passer det, måske findes Paradis ...? Paradis er indlæst af Kim Fupz Aakeson selv i 2013

The Bhagwat Gita is the main sourcebook on yoga and is a concise summary of India's Vedic wisdom. Yet, remarkably, the setting for this classic spiritual text is an ancient Indian battlefield. In this interpretation of the Gita, the author explains that the essence of the Gita is the equanimity of mind, which is attained by transcending it because mind consciousness is myopic and only spiritual consciousness abounds in universal love and absolute knowledge. This best-selling and expanded edition of the most famous and popular of Indian scriptures contextualizes the book culturally and historically and explains the key concepts of Hindu religious thought and the technical vocabulary of yoga. Chapter introductions, notes and a glossary help readers understand the book's message better. Most importantly, the translation uses simple, clear language to impart the poetry, universality and timelessness of the Gita's teachings."
