Beneath the quiet, respectable, solidly Welsh streets of Carmarthen (Caerfyrddin in Welsh) is a world very few are privileged to know. For the alternative reality of the county town of Carmarthenshire in South Wales, is riddled with secrets, vice and betrayal. The second in what will be a four-book series, A Meeting of Dragons follows the adventures of Carmarthen Intelligence and their friends in the Welsh Bureau of Investigation working alongside the Welsh Assault and Rescue Force. In this adventure our heroes pit their wits against a group of Chinese opium peddlers with dastardly plans for the future of Welsh agriculture.
In this final story of The Carmarthen Underground, a mummified body is found deep beneath the Welsh Consulate in north London, prompting fears of yet more traitorous behaviour in the Welsh capital. While the agents of Carmarthen Intelligence investigate, the people of Myddfai are haunted by strange phenomena and Rhian Jenkins realises that the time has come to say farewell. So we say goodbye to our friends in Carmarthen: to Dai Sewin, whose strong arms still steer his coracle along the Towy; to Aneurin, Wyndham and the Boss, who continue to protect the people of Wales from their enemies; to the Jenkins family and the faithful population of Myddfai.

The third in a four-book series, this story follows the adventures of Carmarthen Intelligence, their friends in the Welsh Bureau of Investigation and the steadfast people of the village of Myddfai.

The evening breeze is fragrant with the scent of grilled lobster and designer sun-block. Two German girls in starched white uniforms, buttoned up as tight as Barbie dolls, are serving champagne. Dave Leaper sips his drink and dreams of death and vengeance. At a clinic in Southern Europe, a group of young filmmakers are recreating the songs, the slogans, and the idealism of the years of revolution, while an old man, mummified by wealth and power, watches them and pays the bills.
This chilling and disturbing memoir tells the story of one of Glasgow's most notorious criminals. In his own words, William Lobban tells how he was born in Exeter Prison to a violent, schizophrenic mother. His upbringing in the East End of Glasgow was just as bleak, and he ended up in care, destined for a life of violence and insecurity. Aged only 15 he masterminded a daring break-in to a Glasgow pub, and many years of armed robberies, dealing class A drugs and gang fights followed.
