In a crime ridden San Diego neighborhood a lone police officer holds the line between good and evil. For two years Officer Owen "Blue" Drew is secretly detailed to a one man, covert operation to disrupt drug activities and arrest the most vicious and notorious gang members in a forsaken sector. In the process a contract is put out on his life by the drug lords and he eventually sacrifices everything to his personal war on crime. In the frenzy of battle and violence Blue realizes he is on the brink of madness. His world begins to implode on him. Consumed by the violence, he leaves the Department to search for something lost within himself. His journey takes him through over thirty countries, three continents and thirteen time zones. This epic two and a half year passage ends in a small Swiss mountain village and to a sacred place within himself. A place where many people, cultures and religions lent a helping hand, to a place of tranquil peace, where the doorway to the heart is opened forever.

The Epilogue This book forwards the reader to 2055. It is a political science fiction (or perhaps ramblings of a politically incorrect and inquisitive mind). Not unlike political science at large the theme of this composition is presumptive and speculative at best. It poses the question why and how the United States of America destroyed itself and what kind of world order followed its demise. The Saturn and Beyond This out in space episode takes place in 2113 when advances of science enable humanity to shed most of its handicaps. Millions of miles from Earth and covering unimaginably large distances mankind however, still struggle to define its role in the universe.

A sporting nation is only limited by its imagination. Every time this story is told it changes; something is always added, embellished or dropped from the run-on side. For more than thirty years, H.G. Nelson has been finding the poetry in the punt and humour during half-time. Now, he turns his keen eye for facts and folly to the illustrious history of our great sporting nation. In his trademark fast and furious style, H.G. dives deep into the moments that have truly made us who we are. He reminds us of our leaders' great sporting triumphs, from Harold Holt's swimming to John Howard's bowling; rewrites the record on legends such as 'Aussie Joe' Bugner and Jack Brabham; and explains why Australia's reality TV is the best in the world. The Fairytale is H.G. Nelson's magnum opus - an all-encompassing, no-holds-barred history of Australia at play, told through the stories of our sporting highs, lows and middles.
