The Link introduces a concept that appears to explain the basis of everything in the universe: matter of cosmic proportions, and matter so infinitesimal that it only exists as a mathematical probability; the animate and inanimate; how the human psyche develops and how it ends; where the cosmos came from and where it is going; and ultimately it explains God; giving a firm base for belief rather than the myth and legend which creates so much conflict. Starting with excursions into the art of thinking, this hypothesis certainly gives the reader plenty to think about.

Highland Haven follows Sam Jackson on his leap into the unknown by applying for a mystery job vacancy. This takes him to one of the most beautiful yet rugged regions of Europe; the Scottish Highlands. His task is to convert the ambition of a wealthy entrepreneur into the reality of creating a unique self supporting community in this otherwise barren land. Whilst this fictional scenario, set in an actual Scottish glen, introduces new social and political ideas, the prime theme is punctuated by diverse dramas created by climatic conditions; much skulduggery; and international smuggling. Additional colour to the narrative is provided by well informed word excursions by land, sea, and air, through and over this fascinating region. A real taste is gained of the unique character of life in this harsh, yet stunning terrain. This story has something for everyone: armchair tourists; crime and mystery buffs; environmentalists; even budding engineers and managers. An unusual composition with much intrigue and excitement.
