Super Squad - Colin Whelan - Bog - Troubador Publishing - Plusbog.dk

Super Squad - Colin Whelan - Bog - Troubador Publishing - Plusbog.dk

Super Squad tells the story of those 23 footballers in the 1960s and 70s, who had the greatest influence on English football; and how that influence laid the path for football as it is today. Football fans of the time witnessed the English First Division produce the two greatest English players and the two greatest Scottish players ever - and one George Best. But we also witnessed the ‘pioneers’; those players who did something for the very first time. The book deals with the significance of the abolition of the ‘maximum wage’ and the almost immediate effect it had on the game, the salaries and transfer fees. The book also touches upon the huge influence of television – both colour and black and white - during this time. This isn’t just the story of those players, who stood out through their greatness alone. This is also the story about the players who were overlooked, the players who were unfairly mocked and the players who were forgotten - Super Squad seeks to honour their legacy.

The Smoking Gun - A.p. Rogers - Bog - Troubador Publishing - Plusbog.dk

The Smoking Gun - A.p. Rogers - Bog - Troubador Publishing - Plusbog.dk

The villains are ahead of the game in eighties Britain while the Police are doing their best to catch up with the use of modern technology. Major crimes such as murders or major incidents are still using laborious card index systems to help solve the challenge. Nevertheless, this is an age where there is very limited close circuit television available, still in its infancy. There are very few mobile phones, none of which take photographs or have internet connection, and pagers are only just starting to be used. Against these adversities, the Central London Pickpocket Squad led by a young Detective Inspector Bob Trebors, compensates by still relying on ‘low animal cunning’ to catch the bad guys. They are a niche squad operating in a dangerous environment, but they select new team members according to their own preferences which succeeds in creating an incorruptible ‘tight’ unit. The scourge of South American ‘dips’ descend on London like a swarm of locusts but come up against this visionary team of thief takers. Then it is discovered that officers from earlier times, fearing exposure as being ‘on the take’, are also just as worried about this incorruptible team, and will go to extreme lengths to have them taken down. The underworld senses the injustice of it all, and curiously rallies support. Bob Trebors'' team must now go up against both the villains on the street as well as those within the Force.

Dog Handlers Don’t Dance - Jim Gall - Bog - Troubador Publishing - Plusbog.dk

Dog Handlers Don’t Dance - Jim Gall - Bog - Troubador Publishing - Plusbog.dk

Police Sergeant Stuart Berwick is a career dog handler with a fervent dislike of criminals. By contrast his police dog is a 90-pound Rottweiler with a passion for criminals (biting them that is) and a love of limited overs cricket. The two are renowned as a formidable team and work alongside a crew of handlers and dogs to ensure the town’s delinquent element most certainly do not ‘have a nice day’. Life for the squad is anything but mundane, and between them they while away the hours chasing car thieves up trees, being CS-gassed by other cops and thoroughly ruining drugs dealers’ mornings (and bed linen). Super-sensitive hearing and a phenomenal sense of smell combine with expert training to allow Renko, Bodie, Ollie, Max and Angus to track down and search for burglars and robbers, who for some reason - maybe the 42 teeth and deafening bark - never seem pleased to make their acquaintance. An invasion of the town by violent football thugs becomes a test of courage for the older teams, and a rite of passage for the younger dogs. Vastly outnumbered, they’re forced to make a stand, but will bravery alone prove enough?

In the Name of the Reich - Ian M. Williamson - Bog - Troubador Publishing - Plusbog.dk

In the Name of the Reich - Ian M. Williamson - Bog - Troubador Publishing - Plusbog.dk

London, 1969. Great Britain has flourished under National Socialist rule since its integration into the Third Reich after the Second Great War – a war Great Britain lost – and the nation is at peace. Or so it seems. A psychedelic drug named Yonder has taken the working class population by storm, and has become a figurehead for a “silent protest” against the Nationalist Socialist regime. It is now the single greatest threat to social order, and must be stopped. British-born Detective Sergeant John Highsmith – an officer in the Metropolitan Police’s Drug Enforcement Squad – is a member of the Task Force dedicated to achieving just this. But the job is not so straightforward, and when John is confronted with violence, torture, and death, only his stead-fast loyalty to National Socialism will protect him as he puts his life on the line – in the name of the Reich. A harrowing tale of what might have been, In the Name of the Reich examines how Nazi rule would have warped British society and a young man raised under it. It is uncompromising in its depiction, and aims to revolutionise this genre of fiction.
