It’s 1976 and England is sweating its nuts off. As an unrelenting heat wave beats down on the nation, the residents of Horse’s Arse – aka Handstead New Town, north Manchester – are reaching melting point. The Park Royal Mafia, having recovered from the loss of its senior members, is under new management and open for the business of mindless violence again. Unfortunately their antics have attracted the attention of a psychotic Turkish gangster, who’s decided the Mafia is just what he needs to pull himself to the top of the criminal heap. And wading into the middle of it are the Grim Brothers, Psycho, Pizza, Ally – Horse’s Arse’s finest and the hardestboiled coppers you’ll ever meet. With this lot hot under the collar it’s all going to end in blood, (a lot of) sweat and tears.

When the Sex Pistols swore live on tea-time telly in 1976, there was outrage across Britain. Headlines screamed. Christians marched. TVs were kicked in. Thirty years on, all those words are media-mainstream - bandied about with impunity on TV and in the papers. This is the story of our bad language and its three-decade journey from the fringes of decency to the working centre of a more linguistically liberal nation. Silverton takes a clear, comprehensive and witty look at swearing and the impact of its new acceptability on our language, our manners and our society. He considers how we have become more openly emotional, yet more wary about insulting others. And how it's seemingly become alright to say **** and **** but not ****** or ****. This is the story of that cultural revolution, written by one who was there at the start, proudly striking some of the first blows in the long struggle for the right to reclaim filthy English and use it.

In thirty years on the front line of British policing, there is very little that Iain Donnelly didn't do: from being a uniformed constable on the beat in London to running counter-terrorism and surveillance operations, combatting child sexual exploitation and overseeing the investigation of the most serious crimes. During that time, he saw the job change irrevocably, to the point where the public no longer knows what to expect from the police and the police service no longer knows what to expect of itself. Tango Juliet Foxtrot – police code for 'the job's fucked' – reveals how constant political meddling and a hostile media narrative have had a devastating impact on the morale of police officers and their ability to protect the public. With the organisation cut by 20,000 officers and 23,000 police staff, only 7 per cent of reported crime now results in a charge – compared with around 20 per cent ten years ago. By turns fascinating and funny, poignant and uplifting, this compelling account paints a vivid picture of what life is really like for those tasked with keeping us safe – and, crucially, explores what needs to change to secure the future of British policing.

Whiskey Tango Foxtrot (Aces High MC - Dakotas - Book 2) (Second edition - Sept. 2022) Liza A tattoo artist and biker named Tango came to save the day when my brother put my life in danger again. Stupid name. Sexy biker. My perpetually soaked panties were all the evidence anyone needed that Tango could dance all over my body any damn time he wanted. Unfortunately for me, he seemed to be in a weird relationship with his buddies Whiskey, Fox, and their girl Amy. No way was I signing on to be the lettuce in that screwed up sexual sandwich. Nope. Nope. Nope. I might need protection from an entire MC, but I did not need to share my man. Tango From the moment I laid eyes on her, Liza was all that I could see. Protecting her became a personal matter instead of just another job. Loving her, that was something that couldn’t be helped. If only my past, and the screwed-up relationship my friends attempted to drag me into, hadn’t become a problem.
