Some books you read with impunity; other books should never be read. When a book offers life from a certain death, do you read it? Follow all the instructions for the gift of a prolonged life? Many people would? But if the instructions were for you to kill someone, a loved one. What then? This dark tale shows you how far some people would go for the gift of life. After his father's funeral, William goes back home to his parent’s cottage in a small sleepy village where he grew up to sort out the business and abode, he once thought he would never leave. His legacy of a cottage and car garage left to him by his parents soon becomes a living nightmare when things keep happening that make no logical sense in this age of realism and not witchcraft. William's partner Kate soon realises there is more than just his father’s death going in this sleepy village, and their lives are soon turned upside down with what she discovers. What was supposed to be a few days sorting out the mess left behind by William's father, soon turns into a ghost tale that has them both fighting for their very lives. The BOOK is a modern-day classic ghost horror story. Joe King's twisted mind leads you on a guessing game, and just when you think you have figured it all out, you would be wrong!

When Wicton Village Museum and Library are to be developed, the mysterious curator, Miss Isadora Dean, is incensed. On a visit to the museum, Charlie and Saima, in Year 5 at the village school, are given a statue's head of Janus to draw but as they hold it they are thrust back to Wicton in Roman times. Orcus, a cruel Roman tax collector, is involved in stealing thousands of denarii. Ruus, the son of the blacksmith Metallus, witnesses a fake ambush and murder, all part of an elaborate plot to steal thousands more. When the silver is stolen, it is buried in a clearing not far from town. Charlie, Saima and Ruus, not without some danger, unearth the bags. However, all three children become embroiled and they themselves become suspects 'on the run'. Whilst Metallus is imprisoned at the fort, they are trapped by Orcus in the temple, yet notice another hoard within. Charlie, always full of ideas, sees a way to trap the real culprits and sets out his plan. They must use the Janus head and go back to the future then return to free Ruus. Saima, truthful, stubborn and fast, runs to the fort to inform the authorities and just in the nick of time, soldiers arrive and arrest the true thieves. Charlie and Saima return to present day Wicton and when Alfie, a classmate, mentions a horse he had to draw carved on a brick from the temple, they set out on a treasure hunt. In the dead of night, they dig up a fortune at the museum building site but are immediately arrested. Back at school, they are marched into assembly. They expect the worst until Mr Blewin, the developer, springs a pleasant surprise.
