While anchored in Fossil Bay, Gary comes across a wooden mask floating on the water. Mysterious powers of the mask take Gary to scenes from the past leading The Island Gang to sail north into the Gulf Islands. On Saturna Island, they stumble onto a very old estate where a near life size replica of the Blue Diamond, a twin masted schooner, has been built right inside the mansion on the estate. Carvings from the deck of the schooner have originated in the Native American village of YanYan. Determined to find YanYan, they change their course, heading deeper into the Gulf Islands. While underway, Gary yields to the beckoning of one mask one too many times and is taken into a world from which he has no escape. The Island Gang learns that YanYan has attracted some associated with the Underground. They must once again outwit their foes as they work to find Gary and bring the Underground to justice.

During World War Two, ten year old twin brothers, Billy and Charlie Hall, were evacuated to Westcott in Wiltshire. On 14th August, 1943 Charlie disappeared from a supposedly deserted RAF Base. During the late 1960s, ten year old Phillip Easterbrook was the only survivor of an explosion that killed the residents of four houses in Derbyshire. Although he recovered from the injuries Phillip's memory remained blank. In 1999 small time newspaper reporter Jack Duggan finds a complete set of the books he loved as a child; 'The Island Gang' written, in the late 1940s and early 1950s, by E.W. Whittall and centred on the Isle of Sheppey in Kent Jack notices a Memoriam to a Charlie Hall, posted each year in the local newspaper, and wonders if there is a story behind it. When a different person places the notice, Jack starts to investigate and traces him to a Rest Home in Yorkshire. The person in the Rest Home turns out to be Ernest William Whittall, the writer of the children's stories, and surprises Jack by telling him that he had invited Jack to come and find him, many years ago. Ernest tells Jack that he has a story which is unbelievable but true and will be the scoop of a lifetime but to help Jack believe, he must go and re-read the Island Gang Stories - as an adult, not as a child. Jack finds things in the stories which Ernest could not have known about at the time of writing the books. In their second meeting Ernest reveals that not only is he Charlie Hall but he is also Phillip Easterbrook. He tells of his life as Phillip and how he ended up on the Isle of Sheppey where he met Billy Hall. His memory came back and he remembered being Charlie and how he was projected through time while they were in the RAF Base. Following his reunion, with Billy, Charlie is abducted and returned through time by a group, from a top secret project, who worked at the Base during the 1930s and 1940s. During his new identity as E.W. Whittall he wrote the 'Island Gang' stories and put himself in danger by including clues for the future that he hoped someone would discover and investigate as to how they could have been written. After his meeting with Ernest, Jack wonders about his own safety and makes plans to get the story to his friend at the Newspaper. While waiting for a train home he is also abducted. During his transfer through time Jack disappears and the people involved in his abduction do not know where he has gone. Due to circumstances beyond anyone's control the project completely closes down and the whereabouts of Jack Duggan remains a mystery. Epilogue During the sixteenth century Michel De Nostradamus befriends a mysterious and very knowledgeable Englishman. While dying, from the plague, the Englishman speaks about a manuscript which tells of events that will happen in the future.

For more than a decade, an intense gang war has been raging between British and foreign criminals in Spain's sunny costal regions. The warring factions have left more than a hundred people dead and scores injured, making headlines around the world. These vicious conflicts for control of drugs turf, protection rackets, people smuggling and sex slavery have blighted the reputation of what was once Europe's number one holiday destination and given it a sinister epithet: Costa del Crime. Gang Wars on the Costa reveals the inside story of the crime mobs, their deadly feuds and how this chilling criminal gang culture has evolved at a rate and intensity unlike anything seen before in Europe. With unprecedented access to senior gang members and police officers, Wensley Clarkson traces the roots of these criminals - from Britain, southern Europe, South America and the former Soviet block - and focuses on the emergence of the main gangs, whose rise to power has sparked gun battles and even professional hits.

The first comprehensive biography of the godfather of Australian bushranging – Frank Gardiner – leader of the Lachlan gang and mastermind of the largest gold heist in Australian history. Atop the hierarchy of Australian bushrangers sits Ned Kelly – the ultimate outlaw – and just below him, the tragic figure of Ben Hall, who joined a gang led by a man whose name today is less well known, but in his time was much more famous than any other: Frank Gardiner. Mastermind of the largest gold robbery in Australia’s history, Gardiner led an extraordinary life, the full telling of which is long overdue. In a tough country and among a group of tough men, Gardiner was the toughest of them all. But while he engaged in gunfights with police to evade capture, he was always courteous and could lay claim to never killing anyone, and never stole from those who couldn't afford to be robbed. He went by three different surnames in his lifetime and spent almost half of it behind bars, including at some of the colonies' most notorious penal institutions: the Pentridge Stockade, Cockatoo Island and Darlinghurst Gaol. But if Gardiner was never quite the Robin Hood he sometimes imagined himself to be, he was nevertheless a natural leader, and a man capable of inspiring a motley bunch of stockmen and drifters to become the most effective and successful bushranging gang in the country’s history. His Lachlan gang operated with a clockwork efficiency that culminated in the robbery of the Gold Escort at Eugowra Rocks, and from 1861 to 1863 it held reign over the roads of the Western Plains of New South Wales. Richly detailed, The Golden Gang shines a new light onto Gardiner's remarkable life – one that ended in shocking tragedy – and reinstates him in the pantheon of Australian outlaw heroes.

Tony Thompson, bestselling author of GANGS, returns to the killing streets and takes us to the heart of UK gang culture. Since the publication of GANGS five years ago, the landscape of British organised crime has changed beyond all recognition. Youth violence, the drug trade and rising levels of gun crime are rarely out of the news. The country also continues to experience an influx of powerful foreign criminal syndicates who are establishing operations here in order to take advantage of Britain's global connections. Beginning on the troubled streets of the inner cities, GANG LAND takes its readers on a journey up through the underworld hierarchy until it finally reaches the very highest levels, occupied by elusive and shadowy 'Mr. Big' characters. Written using a mix of personal experiences, undercover work, primary research and cutting edge investigation, GANG LAND sheds new light onto this highly secretive, often terrifying and utterly fascinating world.
