Scammers

By Staffan Nordstrand

£9.98 ISBN: 978-1-916732-19-3

City boys Daniel and Charles have worked for years in the financial sector selling stocks, shares and other assets. As their lifestyles and personal expenses expand, they decide to start their own trading business.

They believe they know how to realise their fortune in simple, if not always legitimate, ways. Involving their wives, everyone’s behaviour begins to shift; things go from trust to dishonesty; their focus switches from financial independence to avoiding getting caught; and their methods transfer from use of their previously acquired knowledge to an ever-deepening involvement with international criminal organisations and their illegal practices.

Soon, Daniel and Charles are facing insurmountable and unsavoury challenges both at work and in their family lives, all beyond their wildest expectations. The further their activities extend internationally, the deeper they find their difficulties developing at home.

Scammers is a story of descent into deception, dishonesty, greed and criminality that will scare anyone who thinks that realising the perfect dream is simply a case of building on seemingly good relationships, combined with maximising financial opportunities by simply bending and breaking a few simple rules.

Jamilah remains traumatised by the terrorism and corruption that stole her adolescence and killed her parents. She’s strived to become a senior nurse and relocated to the city, seeking to raise her younger siblings in a secure environment. Her brother Ahmed has started university; sister Aminah is thriving at school and wants to be a doctor. Meanwhile, Boko Haram is expanding into the lawless borderlands around Lake Chad, abducting and enslaving adolescent girls, even using them as suicide bombers.

When they take Aminah and her classmates, Jamilah knows she can’t rely on the government or its underfunded security forces to get them back. A South African mercenary agrees to help. Is this her knight in shining armour? Or is his master, the Governor, playing politics with the lives of the lost girls? The only person Jamilah can truly rely on is herself. The law is broken, she won’t let these people break her.

Yet what chance does a young woman alone have against a well-protected Governor and an elusive terrorist? And isn’t a nurse supposed to save lives, not end them?

Thy Will be Done

Thy Will Be Done

By Peter Conway

Paperback £11.95, Kindle £4.99 ISBN: 978-1-9997646-9-2

This is the story of a Yorkshire lad, who, aged three, was taken to live in South Africa. A rapscallion, or worse, Peter Conway came to the attention of the Johannesburg police and then, the South African Defence Force. As Peter’s scrapes escalated, he was shrewdly manipulated into serving, first the Apartheid South African Government and then, following Nelson Mandela’s assumption of the Presidency, the new masters of this achingly beautiful land.

Intelligence officer, infantryman in the Bush War in Angola, Hells Angel, brothel keeper, drug smuggler and mercenary, Peter was all these and more.

In 2004, together with Simon Mann, Mark Thatcher and others, Peter participated in the Wonga Coup, the failed attempt to overthrow the Government of Equatorial Guinea.

Finally, the venality and cynicism of modern South African governance became too much and in 2012, aged forty-six, Peter abandoned the land of his dreams to live in England and write this memoir.

Thy Will be Done discloses a frighteningly violent dysfunctionality, bordering upon anarchy, both in present-day South Africa and elsewhere in that continent. It is no read for the faint-hearted, but for those interested in one of the fastest growing and yet most dangerous parts of our world, it’s a must.

Sadly, author Peter Conway died recently at the age of 52.

Kidnap

Kidnap

By Colin Armstrong

£14.98 ISBN: 978-1-916732-57-5

This is the true story of the kidnap for ransom of Colin Armstrong, a former British Consul to Ecuador, and his girlfriend, Kate, on 15th December 2023. Against the background of an ever more violent Ecuador, which in recent years has seen the proliferation of Narco gangs, he had been warned many times not to take chances, to use an armoured vehicle with an escort, and to alter the route and times he drove to his ranch. But he laughed it off. Until the day it happened.

After his release, his lifestyle changed dramatically. Habits of fifty years have to go. He has to relearn and adapt his life to what is possible. The Ecuador he loved has vanished to become a dangerous state. His personal situation with his family has to change too. The press coverage of the kidnap makes it impossible to carry on as before.

In addition to charting the consequences of the kidnap, the book is also a travelogue of his life for the twelve months after his release, with fascinating details of ultra-luxury travel to Antarctica, plus earlier trips to Japan, the Galapagos Islands, Everest, and a Rwanda safari.
