A SHOTS MAG BOOK OF THE YEAR THE STUNNING FOURTH BOOK IN THE DS ALEXANDRA CUPIDI INVESTIGATIONS FROM ONE OF CRIME FICTION'S FINEST WRITERS A DOUBLE MURDER The naked corpses of Aylmer and Mary Younis are discovered in their home. The only clues are a note written in blood and an eerie report of two spectral figures departing the crime scene. Officer Jill Ferriter is charged with investigating the murders while her colleague Alex Cupidi is on leave, recovering from post-traumatic stress. AN ELABORATE SCAM The dead couple had made investments in a green reforestry scheme in Guatemala, resulting in the loss of all their savings. What is more disturbing is that Cupidi and Ferriter's disgraced former colleague and friend Bill South is also on the list of investors and the Younis's were not the only losers. AN UNLIKELY KILLER Despite being in counselling and receiving official warnings to stay away from police work Cupidi finds herself dragged into the case and begins to trawl among the secrets and lies that are held in the fishing community of Folkestone. Desperate to exonerate South she finds herself murderously compromised when personal relationships cloud her judgement. Pacey, intense and riddled with surprising twists, The Trawlerman shows that deceit can be found in the most unlikely places. The brooding waters of the Kent coastline offer an ominous backdrop for this lively page-turner of corruption, mental health and the complexities of human connection.

It takes the reader into unusual and sometimes dangerous circumstances when a ship runs aground on rocky or sandy windswept shores in many, often isolated, parts of the world. A cruise liner at anchor in Alaska with eight hundred passengers on board and three hundred crew is in a precarious, dangerous situation, when the hull plating is torn open for almost its full length and all that is keeping it afloat is the tank tops or inner bottom, which is not designed for that purpose.

TRAWLERMAN is the memoir of Jimmy Buchan - skipper of the Amity II, a fishing vessel based in Peterhead, Europe's largest fishing port. Jimmy's story is one of incredible highs and lows. It's a life that has been lived on the very crest of danger and despair, a career of thirty years that has seen other skippers fall by the wayside, undone by a declining industry, or worse, lost to the unforgiving North Sea. By turns gripping, comic and nostalgic, this tale of Britain's most dangerous job, carried out by Britain's most famous skipper, is guaranteed to mesmerize.

This report by the Ombudsman contains results of the investigation conducted following a number of complaints that were received about the administration of the ex gratia compensation scheme for Icelandic water trawlermen which was operated by the Department of Trade and Industry between October 2000 and October 2002. The loss of the Icelandic water fishing industry in the aftermath of the resolution of the `Cod Wars' of the 1970s had a profound effect on whole communities. The scheme to provide compensation for the livelihoods that were lost as a result was a welcomed initiative by the Government to remedy the effects of the collapse of the industry. The operation of the scheme though led to many complaints as a result of perceived administrative shortcomings in the way that the scheme had been devised and announced and as to the way that application for compensation was handled. This report sets out a number of findings and recommendations, with the Government's response to them. The Ombudsman's findings, include: that the scheme had been devised overly quickly, which led to a lack of clarity about eligibility for compensation; that the announcement of the scheme had been unclear and imprecise; that when problems arose, no review took place on the impact of new eligibility criteria for applicants whose cases had already been decided; that applicants had not been given sufficient information when new eligibility rules were enforced. The Ombudsman has set out a number of recommendations, which include: that ex gratia compensation schemes should be devised with due regard to the need to give proper examination to all relevant issues; any changes to such schemes, should be properly publicised and explained; and where any complaints occur regarding such schemes, it would be good administrative practice to initiate a review. Furthermore, that scheme rules should be clearly articulated.
