When ex-soldier Tom Gray loses his wife and child to a career criminal, it seems life can't get much worse. But when the killer is let off with time served on remand, Gray knows there is something fundamentally wrong with the justice system. Engaging the help of his ex-SAS buddies, he kidnaps five repeat offenders and asks the public to vote on their fate: Should they be allowed to continue their criminal ways with inadequate punishment, or has Britain had enough? His website attracts a worldwide audience and, although the authorities know where he is, they are powerless to stop him. Can Gray carry out his audacious plan? Will Andrew Harvey and his fellow MI5 operatives find a way to stop him?

When John McDermott received the annual PFA Merit Award, in recognition of his record-breaking career at Grimsby Town, he joined an elite group of footballers made up of the likes of Sir Bobby Charlton, Pelé and George Best. McDermott was added to the distinguished list of recipients in recognition of his record-breaking career at Grimsby Town. He played an incredible 754 games overall for the Mariners and is one of only seventeen players in the history of English football to play more than 600 Football League matches for the same. Now McDermott is lifting the lid for the first time on the career that made him one of the most respected defenders in the Football League for two decades and secured him legendary status among the fans at Blundell Park. He gives a humorous and revealing insight into what went on behind the scenes as the Mariners marched to back-to-back promotions to the second tier of English football and also muses on the pitfalls of staying loyal to a single club.
WINNER OF THE FOOTBALL BOOK OF THE YEAR AT THE BRITISH SPORTS BOOK AWARDS SHORTLISTED FOR THE 2016 WILLIAM HILL SPORTS BOOK OF THE YEAR 'This football book is about something even more important than the "beautiful game"; it is a story of the human spirit.' - Mick Hume, The Times Adrian Doherty was not a typical footballer. For one thing, he was blessed with extraordinary talent.

Giggs, who played on the opposite wing, says he is inclined to agree. Doherty was also an eccentric - by football standards, at least. When his colleagues went...
November 1st 2018 is one of those days that stays with you for the rest of your life. You see that was the day I found a small lump in my left breast, you never forget that moment as inside I was filled with dread, fear and worry of what the future held. I had seen several family members in the past few months being diagnosed with that dreaded disease, breast cancer. This find was made even more traumatic as the next day I was attending a dinner at St George's Hall, Liverpool, an iconic ceremonial building known throughout the world and the first building visitors see as they exit Lime street station. It's so iconic that it has been used as a backdrop for film locations for numerous worldwide movies in recent years. I was attending this dinner as I had been nominated for two awards. One was for Employee of the year, a massive honour and the other was for Innovator of the year. These are two extremely prestigious awards within my place of work, Aintree University Hospital. Wow I can hear you say, well so did I. I'm not apologising as I was absolutely over the moon for reasons I will go into later in my story.
