Restoration Force
We can all walk into any of the myriad aircraft museums dotted across the world and appreciate the wonderfully restored and preserved exhibits on display. But what about the many gems lovingly brought back to life and hiding away in people’s garages, sheds, barns and gardens? With Gavin Hoffen’s book you become a privileged spectator into a dedicated but often secretive world – to protect their security, names, projects and locations have been limited to the very basics. This is the nostalgic domain of the amateur restorer, hobbyist, and ‘cockpiteer’ of which Gavin is one. Here you will find complete coverage of over 20 projects worldwide with background histories of the aircraft, color photos of the restoration and full information and specifications – be it of cockpit, fuselage, or full aircraft. From Spitfire to Chipmunk, Vulcan to Buccaneer, Piper Aztec to B-52, this is a fascinating insight into an obsession with the romance that aviation once was. A must-see for every aircraft aficionado, and an inspiration for future preservers.
Dandelion
Who do you run to when everyone is after you? If youthful estate agent Edward Hamilton (Hammy) thought the most he had to worry about was turning up late for work with a raging hangover, then he was very much mistaken. After discovering a staggeringly important piece of lost history, he and his best friend, Ben, are catapulted into a terrifying world of MI5 spies and Russian KGB funded terrorists. Was Churchill's government involved in the death of Polish Prime Minister General Sikorski? Why are British and Russian governments so desperate to get their hands on Hammy's discovery? Dandelion will take the reader on a thought provoking rollercoaster ride through modern times and the much darker days of World War 2. Gavin Hoffen is an estate agent and aviation fanatic. He grew up in Swindon, Wiltshire, England and now lives with his partner, Serena, and Persian cat, Oscar, in nearby South Marston. Dandelion is his first novel.

The Colour of Greed
When Adelaide is rocked by an earthquake, no one is left more shaken than David Burrows, an engineer in a recently completed apartment building that suffers severe structural damage and collapses, leaving 26 people dead and countless injured. The building should never have collapsed and sparks a furore of condemnation by the press and public alike. Then David receives an alarming phone call from Alice Springs where the steel used in the construction was manufactured. The race is on across the country to uncover the truth. As the plot unravels we learn that the failure of the structure is the result of something far more sinister. The mine that supplied the ore for processing will soon be wor...
The Accidental Shepherd
Gavin Dobson s latest book completes the quartet of Geordie Kinloch short stories. (Tales of a Free Spirit, The Novice; Chicago Burns and Other Side Trips) Together they suggest that however fast you run, attempt to outwit the past or strive for perfection, life s jack-in-the-box will probably be waiting around the next corner to pop up and mock you. Each of the fifteen stories in The Accidental Shepherd should be read on its own merits as a stand-alone vignette in the life of Geordie Kinloch. Some were inspired by experiences and observations of the author and his friends; others are too far-fetched to be autobiographical. The Accidental Shepherd is set in the questionable gentility of rura...
