Only one suspect had been charged in any of those cases but with evidence supplied by Elvis Cole in the end he walked free. That suspect was the suicide now discovered in the fire...and now the police are out for Cole... ...

Ten years ago Manuel Queiroz declared his intention to fly solo around the world. Having just beaten cancer he was buoyed by the recent brush with mortality & ready to take on a life-changing goal. Five years ago he fulfilled his ultimate dream & Chasing the Morning Sun" is the exhilarating story of his record-breaking journey. In February 2006 Manuel circumnavigated the globe in a home-built aeroplane on an adventure which took him 27 056 miles. The journey lasted thirty-nine days as he made eighteen stops in twelve different countries becoming the only Briton ever to achieve this feat. & for this he was honoured by the Royal Aero Club with their highest award the Britannia Trophy which was bestowed on him by His Royal Highness the Duke of York. Taking off from an icy Britain he was within days flying over burning deserts through tropical rainstorms & the sweltering equatorial heat. Within a week he had landed on a tiny island in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. The journey wasn't all plain sailing there were dangers to confront & overcome: flying through sandstorms in the Saudi desert terrifying electric storms taking off from unlit runways at night & the ever present possibility of mechanical failure over an inhospitable ocean. It was a truly solo effort. There was no co-pilot to take over the controls when exhaustion set in no ground staff to handle repairs no one to check the route or the weather or to turn to for advice when critical decisions had to be made. An inspiring tale of personal strife against impossible odds both inside & outside the cockpit makes " Chasing the Morning Sun" not just a book for pilots or adventurers but for anyone looking for inspiration from the realisation of a lifelong ambition." ...
