Frock Off


Book Description

This is the story of how money and power has corrupted the Anglican Church structure in a new corporatized Church era. From the bullying of a Bishop to a ‘star chamber’ tribunal process, it exposes the cover-up of a multitude of criminal activities by diocesan agents. This is the story of Church leadership out of control. Of how maverick officials, embroiled in church politics, indulged in Machiavellian schemes and engineered my ‘defrocking’ and exile from the priesthood. While I have never committed any crime, I was judged and condemned by the Newcastle Professional Standards Board who themselves committed multiple atrocities to secure a fabricated verdict. This is the story of my struggle for justice, reconstructed from my own journals. It exposes my own private mistakes and personal struggles as a priest in the church of God. It also exposes how the Director of this Board led his group through a moral quagmire to enable them to lie, cheat, extort, and steal their way through an investigation and Tribunal Hearing, covering up the mess with the veneer of church respectability.

Delphi Complete Works of Peter Cheyney (Illustrated)


Book Description

The British crime fiction writer Peter Cheyney is the creator of the American FBI agent Lemmy Caution and the English detective Slim Callaghan. These characters were constructed as a British response to the hardboiled detectives of American fiction. In later years Cheyney’s style matured with the ‘Dark’ books, drawing wide praise during World War II for bringing more realism to espionage fiction. Although his works have suffered neglect in recent times, the fame of Cheyney’s novels in the post-war period cannot be underestimated, having sold over 5 million copies.

The Brandons


Book Description

Lavinia Brandon is quite the loveliest widow in Barsetshire, blessed with beauty and grace, as well as two handsome grown-up children, Delia and Francis. So thinks their cousin Hilary Grant when he comes to stay and - like many before him - promptly falls for his fragrant hostess. Meanwhile, the Brandons' ill-tempered dowager aunt is stirring up controversy over her legacy, and Lavinia's attention is further occupied by the challenges of making a match between the vicar and gifted village helpmeet Miss Morris, and elegantly deterring her love-struck suitors. Angela Thirkell's 1930s comedy is bright, witty and winning.
