This supernatural horror thriller, set in 1929, evokes H.P. Lovecraft’s eerie, haunted New England. A Harvard psychiatrist–a World War I veteran and recovered morphine addict–is confronted by the mystery of a traumatized teenage girl. A bizarre outburst from her starts him on a search for missing children. This leads to a remote, secretive village, where he finds the sinister worship of “guardian spirits”–and a sultry love affair with his alluring, enigmatic hostess. At the same time, his Harvard colleague delves into the occult underworld of Boston, resulting in a terrifying and sexually charged brush with black magic. Both men are left forever scarred by evil as they uncover the link between vanished children and the hidden existence of the Khibri–powerful demons in human form, dedicated to causing mankind’s misery on an epic scale.

About the Book
DUGAN THOUGHT SOMALI PIRATES WERE BAD NEWS. THEN IT GOT WORSE.

As Tom Dugan and Alex Kairouz, his partner and best friend, struggle to ransom their ship and crew from murderous Somali pirates, things take a turn for the worse. A US Navy contracted tanker with a full load of jet fuel is also hijacked, not by garden variety pirates, but by terrorists with links to Al Qaeda, changing the playing field completely.

With a possible link between piracy and terrorism now in play, the US and British goverments order the halt of all negotiations for captive ships, and enraged pirates ratchet up the mistreatment of the captive crews. When one of their crewman is murdered in front of him on a live video feed, a frustrated Dugan takes matters into his own hands and starts his own rescue operation, only to stumble across something far more sinister — a rogue salvage operation for a long lost weapon of mass destruction. Isolated at sea on an old tanker previously destined for the ship breakers, Dugan and his hastily assembled little force of Russian mercenaries find themselves the last line of defense between the world and a terrifying bio-weapon.

Weaving historical fact with speculative fiction, Deadly Coast takes the reader from London board rooms into the very real world of modern day pirates — and their victims.

In this third sexy thriller, Jack Lazar ventures to Egypt where he investigates a crash-landed World War II airplane that was recently found in the Sahara desert. But something remarkable was left onboard, and people will stop at nothing to obtain it, throwing Jack into the middle of a hornet’s nest. The situation grows even more complicated as he becomes entangled with Dalia, an exquisite blue-eyed woman of Egyptian and British heritage whose father is the Egyptian Head Consul to the UK, not to mention a formidable covert agent with the Mukhabarat. It’s a race against time as the trail leads to Northern Europe, where all hell breaks loose.

Love Hiking? Camping? Food cooked over an open fire?

Want to produce camp meals that are hassle-free – and beyond delicious? Discover how to travel light while feeding sumptuously? That’s just the start of what this book does for you!

“Really Simple Wilderness and Campfire Cooking” distinguishes between cooking in vehicle-accessible campsites, on the one hand, and in virgin, untracked territory, on the other, where all you have is on your back – or in your canoe!

The book describes how to select and use different woods in different circumstances; what to do when you have no dry wood available; how to start a fire, and how to find, store and use dry kindling. It shows how to cope with wind – and how to cook in the wilderness with the minimum of equipment.

The book explores the benefits of fireless cooking, using heat retention principles, both in the wild (by using materials naturally available) and in camp with an easy-to-make haybox.

Potjiekos, or Dutch Oven, cooking methods are covered (and in even greater detail in the second book featured, below) and a number of proven slow cook recipes, are provided for you.

The book gives a number of little known secrets for storing foods in the wilderness, and describes a backwoods “smoker” for preserving foods like trout, birds and small game.

There’s a section on weight-friendly camping and wilderness tools, tips and recipes for seasoning mixes, and rubs and pastes specifically for outdoor applications.

Very few outdoor cookbooks cover BOTH vehicle-accessible campfire cooking and food preparation in true wilderness. This one does! – in 150+ information-packed and illustration-rich pages

To cook like a pro in the wild – get WILDERNESS, CAMPFIRE AND SLOW COOKING OUTDOORS, now!

2 REALLY SIMPLE SLOW COOKING OUTDOORS.

Love the outdoors? Enjoy chilling out? Socialising around a fire? Looking for new ways of cooking that involve minimum effort for maximum appreciation? “Really Simple Slow Cooking Outdoors” does all of this for you – and a lot more besides!

My family and I love slow-cooked foods … curries … stews … casseroles … pot roasts … thick, rich soups ….

We also like eating outdoors, especially around an open fire; and even more particularly when we’re camping or on holiday, and tuned out of the hustle and bustle and pressures of city life.

Grilling as a means of cooking fits quite well with these family values. But for a really relaxing, cook-it-and-forget-about-it, means of preparing food, you’d look far to find something to beat slow cooking in a Dutch Oven or potjie!

The book introduces you to the cast iron potjie in its various styles and sizes, and explains what each is used for. It describes what you need to do to “break in” a new potjie or Dutch Oven, and how to care for it and maintain it once it has been “cured” or seasoned.

It discusses how to approach slow-cooking in a potjie, and how it can be combined for best effect with a haybox (or heat retention cooker). Secrets to making and maintaining a fire that’s suitable for potjiekos slow cooking are revealed and explained, and the different methods of cooking – layering for a 1-pot meal, dry-roasting, casseroling, bread-making and a score of other methods and techniques are explored in some depth.

Recipes and seasonings for a variety of dishes, food categories and occasions are examined, and as an added bonus to readers of this book we’ve included a section on how to make and use a haybox in conjunction with a potjie for really relaxed, hands-and-attention-free cooking.

You’ve just gotta love slow cooking in a potjie. Get WILDERNESS, CAMPFIRE AND SLOW COOKING OUTDOORS , now– and start enjoying this most relaxing form of cooking.

About the Author
Peter Dugmore is passionate about the outdoors. A lifelong foodie, with a particular love of outdoor cooking (in all its forms), charcuterie,sushi, and cross-cuisine fusion food, he enjoys writing (and researching) books and articles that cover these and a wide spread of other interests.
He has also at various times been an inventor (“generating a modest profit but a really satisfying sense of creative fulfilment”)…
…and at other times a management consultant and businessman. (“Perhaps, everyone has to have a dark side?!!!”)
Peter and his family live in Africa, and share a passion for its wilderness opportunities.
They’ve worked out that at one (very privileged!) stage in their lives, over a period of about ten years, the family spent more than 800 nights camping out on safaris, wilderness holidays, canoe adventures – and “riverside living” on a wild stretch of the Breede River in South Africa. Many times, jackals, lynx, black eagles, honey badgers, a variety of antelope, and otters were their only companions.
Peter’s paternal grandparents were members of the Pioneer column in 1896 to what was then Matabeleland, in Central Africa.
His grandfather was General Manager of a ranching company which owned large tracts of virgin bush in Southern Rhodesia, now Zimbabwe.
Some of his earliest childhood memories are of extended camping trips with his grandparents and his father, sleeping under the stars, shooting and fishing for the pot (in early Pioneer fashion) and generally enjoying the generous bounty of what was then an unspoilt wilderness.
Those early experiences left a taste for backwoods living and sections of a selection of books on this site are given over to “Campfire Grilling and Smoking” – and what can be done to grill, cook, smoke and preserve food in the bush without conventional equipment and accessories.
Later, in Peter’s teens, his father acquired a share in a large tract of virgin bush and riverine forest on the banks of the Dekka River, home to Africa’s “Big Five”, near the Hwange Game Reserve in North Matabeleland …. “where the wilderness got really upfront and personal!”.
“In the most rustic of bush smokehouses we learned to smoke big, green river bream from the Dekka, as well as the odd haunch of warthog or bush pig.”
Now, in their retirement, the “outdoors” for Peter and his family has largely moved to the backyard, and the equipment they use for grilling, barbecuing and smoking is “as commercial as it is rustic”. But the urge to experiment, to learn about and try different grilling, smoking and dry-curing methods and techniques, remains.
“Out of that enduring, lifelong interest my books on cooking, particularly cooking in the outdoors, were born. I really do hope you’ll enjoy reading them as much as I’ve enjoyed researching and writing them”.
