Alf King, a small-time London Loser, decides his way to Gangland Success is to set up his own Gang. With his two-man Gang and the 'assistance' of some real villains he makes it, in spite of his domineering wife Martha and making an enemy of PC Cuthbertson who (unintionally) gives Alf's criminal Rep. a big boost early on.

Alf King and The Gang go to the Costa del Sol on holiday. They meet glamorous Flamenco dancers (Esmarelda and Margaretta) and join in a Plan to steal a Spanish Duke's antique watches. The Gang foil it, but Jim Cooke shouldn't have tried to use Esmarelda as a hostage.

When I picked Lanzarote with its volcanoes - for me - and its camels - for Mum - for our holiday I never thought I'd meet up with Trevor (my age), his kid brother (the pain), Sandy Griffiths (the awful) and Ranolf Meredith (the puzzle). Or that Trevor would want to help with my Authoring. Or that we'd become Investigative Reporters. So what did that older Ranolf really want with the pretty, barely 13 year old Sandy? Was he one of those dangerous 'Internet Daters' we'd been warned about at school, trying it on in this holiday Complex? Or was he the 'Contact Man' for a gang of kidnappers as Sandy's parents were rich?
