A Friendly Killing

When Scott McIntyre retires from the Royal Air Force, he joins the Mongoose Section, an elite group within the British security services, dedicated to the elimination of the world’s worst international terrorists. One of these, Mustapha al-Yaffi had killed Scott’s parents and sister in a botched attack on some diplomats and Scott takes on the leadership role in hunting down this man. But as he closes in on al-Yaffi, his world is turned upside down as he discovers that everything he thought he knew about his family, his friends and even his target have been complete fabrications and nothing was ever as he had thought.

Accounts of a Killing

When Garry Barton tells his employers, a large but old-fashioned firm of professional accountants that their survival is threatened by their obsolete ways of doing business, he arouses so much anger in the partners that he is fired. He joins a small firm and starts to take business away from his old employers, so much so that they panic as their organisation is threatened. As their fears increase, they lose all morality and sense, eventually trying to damage Garry as a threat. But their failure drives them beyond the point at which normal human standards apply and there is only one possible, fatal conclusion.

As Dan’s conditioning breaks down further, he regains all his memories of a Russian childhood, his training at a secret Siberian camp and the murders he has committed for his controller. He determines to break free of his conditioning with the help of those who were once his enemy. But the stressful, nearly fatal process leaves him not knowing who is friend and who is foe.

The Adventures of Gilbert the Farting Mouse (Book)

This is the first occasion in which another writer's work has been published by the Foundation. When Gilbert discovers the amazing power of his flatulence he embarks on a series of adventures. He flies into orbit, travels to Tasmania, saves a house from burglars, rescues a trapped man in a building, defeats a plague of rats at the Coffs Harbour market and saves the Sydney-Hobart Yacht Race, among others. Gilbert is truly a local hero in Coffs Harbour. R.O. Dent is NOT the name of a successful Coffs Harbour businesswoman and if anyone tries to say she wrote the Gilbert adventures, she will sue them blind.

One of the hardest things in the world to accomplish is getting a book written. This manual describes a methodology adapted from well-tried business principles that has been used with great success in schools, both senior and primary, with seniors' classes and with informal groups. It will get you over the hurdles of developing a plot, creating powerful characters and controlling the process right through to the magical moment when you write "The End" on the final page. The Second Edition now includes details and diagrams of the theoretical structures and key requirements for all the main book genres.

The Janus Conspiracy

A conspiracy has been in process for sixty years to take over the USA. A powerful group of men, funded by the two richest men in America and with powerful influences in the country has been planning the coup for decades and only a small, dedicated group of intelligence specialists has learned about it. But nobody, not the agents and not even the members of “The New America Council” knows the full extent of the murderous and ruthless plans of the Council's founders and just how much at risk is the safety and security of the entire world.

The Julie Malloy Gang and the Smugglers

This is the second school project (after "The Mickie Dalton Trilogy") to create a book using the methodology described in the textbook, "The Business School Approach to Writing Your Novel." It is written for the 7-11 age group readership and is ideal for parents to read to the younger set. The project ran for nine weeks with a weekly workshop with ten primary school students aged 7-12 in which the writer conducted a series of workshops during which the children created all the characters, the primary story line and the main events. The book is being used as a fundraiser by the school and is being acquired by a number of similar schools for teaching processes.

The Mickie Dalton Trilogy

12-year old Mickie Dalton learns that he is not a human, but his origins are a mystery.

But the ancient enemy that defeated the Pfafth returns, determined to destroy Mickie and the Pfafth who are hiding somewhere out of Time and Space. A million year-old war has restarted and Mickie must draw on all his emerging powers and call on his allies, some beautiful, some mysterious, some terrifying as he seeks his people to save them from extermination.

That is the new Infinite’s task, to heal Humanity. But forces of unutterable evil also arise and grow in power to challenge the Infinite’s strength and mission. Eventually the war becomes the ultimate battle for the control of the Throne of Heaven and if it is lost, then all of Creation will be destroyed.

He eventually won The New Zealand Cup, the Wellington Cup, the Doncaster and many others in Australia and NZ with multiple rides in the Melbourne Cup, as well as satisfying his urge to travel by riding in Mauritius, India, Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand winning over $18 Million dollars in prize money for his trainers and owners.

This book is under development with Michael Davies.

	The Road to Dawn On some occasions The Foundation will publish a book for a third party writer. "Flatulent Tales" is one such and this book of verse is another. The poetry reflects the immensely difficult road Wendy Rankin has taken over recent years. The book is not for sale at present, though several psychologists and mental health specialists have acquired copies for their practices.
