Shilly has had enough of such dark doings, but her new companion, the woman who calls herself Anna Drake, insists they investigate. Anna wants to open a detective agency, & the reward would fund it.

They soon learn of a mysterious pair of strangers who have likely taken the boy, & of Saint Nectan who, legend has it, kept safe the people of the woods.

As Shilly & Anna seek the missing child, the case takes another turn
- murder. Something is stirring in the woods & old sins have come home to roost.

In " The Making of Modern Britain", Andrew Marr paints a fascinating portrait of life in Britain during the first half of the twentieth century as the country recovered from the grand wreckage of the British Empire. Between the death of Queen Victoria & the end of the Second World War, the nation was shaken by war & peace. The two wars were the worst we had ever known & the episodes of peace among the most turbulent & surprising. As the political forum moved from Edwardian smoking rooms to an increasingly democratic Westminster, the people of Britain experimented with extreme ideas as they struggled to answer the question ' How should we live?' Socialism? Fascism? Feminism? Meanwhile, fads such as eugenics, vegetarianism & nudism were gripping the nation, while the popularity of the music hall soared. It was also a time that witnessed the birth of the media as we know it today & the beginnings of the welfare state. Beyond trenches, flappers & Spitfires, this is a story of strange cults & economic madness, of revolutionaries & heroic inventors, sexual experiments & raucous stage heroines. From organic food to drugs, nightclubs & celebrities to package holidays, crooked bankers to sleazy politicians, the echoes of today's Britain ring from almost every page. ...

W. Rinzler’s trio of breathtaking books celebrating George Lucas’s classic saga.

Get up close to the action & feel like a studio insider as:

* George Lucas, Oscar-nominated screenwriter Lawrence Kasdan & director Richard Marquand huddle in a script conference to debate the destinies of iconic Star Wars characters

* The artists & technicians at the ground-breaking Industrial Light & Magic facility surpass their own revolutionary innovations with boundary-pushing new visual effects

* A crack team of sculptors, puppeteers, actors & ‘monstermakers’ brings Jabba the Hutt & his unsavoury cohorts to startling, slobbering life

* Actors & crew race to the finish line at Elstree Studios, in a fiery desert & beneath the canopy of a dense redwood forest to provide answers to the questions that audiences had waited three years to find out: Is Darth Vader really Luke’s father? Who is the mysterious ‘other’? & who, or what, is the Emperor?
