Books 4-6 in Tony Lewis's Skullenia series, now available in one volume! The Quest for the Bone Idol: Ollie and the boys need a break from the detective agency, so when Stitches wins a competition at The Bolt and Jugular, it seems that fate may be finally smiling down on them. But But what should have been a relaxing cruise turns into a voyage of intrigue and mayhem on the high seas, when our intrepid explorers find themselves entangled in yet another mystery involving a strange relic, a dangerous foe, and a rather bawdy crew of pirates with interesting beards. A Witch in Time: Despite it being slightly more fun than a visit to a 12th century dentist, Stitches doesn't want to go Mrs. Ladle's game night. Tonight, she has promised them something special: a game that hasn't been played for a very long time. One that's bound to make the evening fly by and take them to an adventure packed full of derring-do and never-before chronicled acts of heroism and bravery. Intensive Scare: A psychic message, a portly medium, missing residents and a strange glow can only mean one thing: something is happening in Skullenia, and it's down to Ollie and the gang to sort it out. With the help of Deirdre Clownpuncher, the boys try to find out where everyone's gone before they disappear forever. Our heroes must employ all of their guts and guile to follow the clues which, seeing as they don't actually have any guts and guile, means they'll be relying on other people as usual.

A Pirate’s Guide to Strategy Leadership gives you an informative study on strategic leadership, blended with a unique theme of the Golden Age of Piracy. This book is a comparative study where readers are educated on the various facets of strategic leadership while comparing modern leadership with the work ethic and operational aspects of pirates in the 19th century. The book is an inclusive guide, taking readers in a progressive sequence upon discovering the treasured aspects of piracy and how modern leaders could draw inspiration from their lives. Pirates, although deemed to be adjudicated as having lived a nefarious and immoral life and highly romanticized in modern literature, there are lessons we could root out from their perseverance and tenacity.
