Brook High is a great grey concrete ants' nest of a school. John Malarkey is the new kid thrown in at the deep end of Year 11. He's the wrong person in the wrong place at the wrong time. Through what at first appears to be a random meeting he helps a girl called Mary Chase out of a tricky situation but is subsequently accused of stealing report cards to sell to students so they can write their own bogus reports. He quickly realises it was all a set-up & that he's been used to take the fall. The teacher who accuses him of the crime gives him one day to prove his innocence. Malarkey tries to track down Mary Chase but it's difficult in such a huge place. He does however discover strange goings-on beneath the surface of the normal school day. The more questions he asks the deeper he becomes involved in the corrupt under-belly of the school. He's also noticed the peculiar fact that so many kids at Brook wear Adidas trainers

He discovers that the name of the organisation's leader is Freddie Cloth & Mary Chase turns out to be Cloth's girlfriend.

This book deals with both the campaign fought by British Commonwealth & other security forces in Malaya against Communist insurgents between 1948 & 1960 & also the security action in North Borneo during the period of Confrontation with Indonesia from 1962 to 1966. Both campaigns provided invaluable experience in the development of anti-guerrilla tactics & are relevant to the conduct of similar actions which have been fought against insurgent elements since then. The book written with the full co-operation of various departments of the UK Ministry of Defence contains material that untilrecently remained classified. This is the first full study to cover the role of airpower in these conflicts. It will be of relevance to students at military colleges & those studying military history as well as having a more general appeal particularly to those servicemen & women who were involved in both campaigns. ...
