LOST CONTACT
An offshoot military force from Indonesia collaborates with the newly established Aboriginal "Council of Land Owners" to annex Northern Australia. Their plan? To finance the removal of most of Northern Queensland’s population and seize the resource-rich territories stretching to Western Australia. Claiming local indigenous support, they aim for a swift takeover, targeting the nearly deserted Darwin as their staging area. Set in the pre-dawn of the technological age, where communication is sparse, an old soldier turned government official detects the looming threat. Unable to rally his colleagues, he covertly diverts two ODF (Operational Deployment Force – Peacekeepers) units for an "Advance to Contact" exercise south of Darwin. What unfolds is a gripping clash, testing the limits of resolve, strategy, and survival.
The Story of Warrington
‘Bill Cooke is to be congratulated on his extensive and knowledgeable account of Warrington’s history.’ – Harry Wells, author of Medieval Warrington In 2015 Warrington was named by the Royal Society of Arts as the ‘least culturally alive town in England’. But was this a fair evaluation? In his new book, Bill Cooke offers a dramatic reexamination of the town. Looking back on its fascinating history dating back to the Romans, The Story of Warrington demonstrates an extensive and diverse cultural history. Should Warrington apologise for the person who supported Richard III against the Princes in the Tower? Why was Warrington thought of as the Athens of the North? What role did the town play in the Industrial Revolution and the slave trade? How did Warrington help win the Cold War? With insights into these questions and more, readers are presented with the other side of the argument and learn key facts about the history of this British town.
Dean Martin
Legendary Rat Pat singer and actor Dean Martin has perhaps become even more respected since his death. Today fans of all ages download his songs from the Net and purchase his recordings on CD. His extraordinary renaissance is detailed in this absorbing biography of the man the world knew as the eternal essence of cool. From his early days as a trainee boxer to work as a croupier in the local casino, where he proved to be a big hit with the women who frequented his table, this compelling biography dispels the myths about the consummate professional who worked hard to cultivate a reputation for laziness. Michael Freedland has had exclusive access to Martin's family and friends, including some who have never spoken of Dino before. Freedland takes an indepth look at Martin's career, as well as his lifelong friendship with Frank Sinatra, his chronic claustrophobia and his manic fear of hospitals. Here at last is the truth behind the iconic singer, including his three failed marriages and the reconciliation with Jeanne, his second wife.
