About this series
Geeza Vermies, Shamanic Detective, is hot on the heels of a gang of poachers. Bumping into his old friend Elliot, they join forces and follow the trail to Mexico, but their investigation quickly uncovers a far deeper plot, and once again they find themselves in a race against time to save the world!
Meanwhile Father Sadfael, the bumbling, out of time Benedictine monk, also finds himself in Mexico, sent to stop a vitriolic campaign of destruction being carried out against the entire Christian Church.
Who are the sinister figures orchestrating their deadly schemes from the shadows of the jungles? Could a rogue vicar burning down churches have any connection to a plot to bring back the bloodthirsty Gods of the Americas? And if so, what can anybody do to stop it?
Not a lot really - not when you don’t know what it is that’s supposed to happen, who’s going to do it or where it’s going to take place!
And especially when you’re up against a Jaguar-Priest of exceptional power, not to mention the small matter of the Aztec Gods themselves...

1
One man's obsession with scotland. One shamanic detective. one twelfth century monk catapulted through time to present day England. A devil, a megalomaniac maths lecturer and the world on the brink of economic collapse. It sounds a convoluted tale, but it all fits together - honest. And what's more, while it doesn't actually explain how time travel is possible, it does at least prove that it does exist. Irrefutably. That is, of course, if you believe the word of a man whose business card contains no contact details, who smokes mushrooms through a pipe and who talks to mooses. And what has any of this got to do with Scotland?

In Book Two of the Cripplesby Diaries Trilogy, Elliot and Geeza are thrown together once more, travelling through Africa in a race against time to stop a mysterious, but hideously evil entity. As ancient as the Earth itself, it has remained dormant for millennia, but is now shaking free. Together with a maverick scholar, an expert in archaic forms of writing, they discover that the fate of the World somehow revolves around the three Great Pyramids of Egypt which were actually built by... Scotsmen? Discover a host of earth-shattering revelations such as the real truth behind the origins of Man while Elliot & Geeza desperately fight against their malevolent foe, avoid being over-run by hairy, black caterpillars and try to stop the authorities from opening a tiny door set deep within an air shaft of the Great Pyramid itself! The Da Vinci Code meets Fear & Loathing in Las Vegas, McRoots takes you on a wild and totally weird ride – can you hold on long enough to save the world?
