The Drumbeater
Something caught his eye, as if the sun was reflecting on something shiny. The source of this momentary distraction was the clouded glass face of an old wrist watch. He bent down to retrieve it, then recoiled abruptly, standing bolt upright. The watch, complete with decaying leather strap, was secured to the wrist of a skeletal hand. Clive Allan has drawn upon thirty years experience as a police officer and a profound knowledge of the Scottish Highlands in his crime thriller, The Drumbeater When skeletal remains are found buried on a beach near the remote Scottish village of Glendaig, the evidence points to murder, to a crime dating back seventy years to World War Two. The task of unravellin...
The Well of The Dead
“The constable had ducked under the lintel and cautiously edged his way into the property with a stolidness becoming of his twenty-two years of police service. What he had discovered inside had brought him staggering out again, pale and staring, the sweet taste of vomit rising in his throat.” In April 2010, the brutal murders of distillery owner, Duncan Fraser, and his wife Laura, shock the small rural community of Glenruthven in the Scottish Highlands. The ensuing police investigation unearths an ancient clan feud… and a mystery dating back to 1746 and the Battle of Culloden. Detective Inspector Neil Strachan, who we first met in Clive’s first novel, The Drumbeater, once again finds...
Super Chick
Marsha Hendershot is given the job of "super hero" by two celestial beings and told to fight crime, save Earth, along with our pitiful species, and pick up litter. Suddenly her life with Mooch, her beloved dog, and Buster, her deranged goldfish, is turned upside down. Marsha doesn't want the job, but, curiosity and the need to succeed at something, just once in her lifetime leads her to become Super Chick. How she deals with her role as a super hero, runs her bakery, falls in love with Bruce Canfield, saves her parent's marriage, and the life of her batty neighbor, Mattie Mc Fee, is the basis for this fast-paced and hilariously funny chick-lit romp through the world of the unimaginable. Marsha, amazingly, does it all while saving herself from freezing to death in a meat locker, loosing dozens of biscotti to Super Chick's fire retardant foam, and capturing Abdullah bin Chad Al-Hijazi, an Afbadistan terrorist, intent on destroying the United States.

Drawing on examples from British world expressions of Christianity, this collection further greater understanding of religion as a critical element of modern children’s and young people’s history.
