Looking at his life through a new lens, he grows misty-eyed for his youth and decides to reconnect with his old school friend, 'Captain' Finley John. However, when Blakey tracks down Finley, Blakey finds that he's not the dashing, charismatic man from Blakey's youth. He's a widower, whose debt problems have made him a bitter recluse. So Blakey recruits his allotment friend, Geoff, to help get Finley back on his feet, but they can only think of one way to solve Finley’s money problems – a good old-fashioned bank robbery. After all, they've seen them done a million times on TV. How hard can it be? "The Boomer Crew" is a heart-warming cozy crime caper. Come and meet the Boomer Crew boys for yourself.

Book excerpt: Twenty years ago, the KGB planted an agent in the American Navy. Today he is the commander of an American nuclear attack submarine! Wayne Newell is all-Navy, all-American, all-traitor. A graduate of the Soviet "Charm School," Newell is captain of the nuclear attack submarine USS Pasadena, now patrolling beneath the Pacific. He's convinced his crew that the world is at war — and that the Russians have a deadly masking device that makes Soviet submarines sound exactly like the most crucial ships in the American fleet: the nuclear-powered ballistic missile submarines known as Boomers. The subs that Pasadena detects may sound American — but they're the enemy and must be destroyed. The deception has begun... In a world of darkness, super-sensitive listening devices and nerve-wracking tension, Newell's crew is being driven to the breaking point, cut off from communications, forced to destroy "enemy" subs in a war they can't confirm. And while the U.S. Pacific Command scrambles to find out who is attacking their fleet, two American submarines must go to war — against an aggressor who knows their every move, and is rapidly destroying America's sea-based strategic nuclear defense. "Technically brilliant...plus the added bonus of strong characters and an intelligent plot." — Nelson DeMille "Taylor rachets the suspense well past the breaking point...BOOMER is a hell of a fine sea story!" — Stephen Coonts

The rivalries between the Gods are unmatched as the stream of shenanigans they pull unfolds throughout the Ageon. Not only does this competitiveness to win their Olympic Games continue to dominate and control them, it also rallies them into jockeying for a position at the upcoming Galaxy Extravaganza which is the next level of play. The tactics displayed by some of them prove to be extremely risky and not just for them, but for Earth itself and everyone on it. Just like the Gods, Max Wayne is competing for a slot in the Extravaganza as a human competitor. He's one of their best Collectors on Earth, and he too must qualify during the Ageon Games to become a contestant. The process for him is very simple; to become eligible he must protect his Salvages during their games, winning each game while collecting the stones and then returning the players to their original destination, a very challenging feat to say the least. Join the Gods and Max as they take the ride of a lifetime working their way through the Ageon Games and time.
