? Draws on confidential police sources
? Analyses the thousands of pages of the Portuguese police dossier

? Reports, in frightening detail, on the many earlier sex assaults on British children in the area

"Lucidly written, superbly researched...non-judgemental...An excellent, fascinating update."
"A wonderful book. I was engrossed from beginning to end."
