Book excerpt: The greatest prize at the London 2012 Olympics isn't gold...it's the Holy Grail. There's a rumour there's treasure buried beneath the Olympic site. And that a secret army is going to find it. Only nobody believes it. But when a mysterious group of pirates move to the East End, people become suspicious.And when Cockneys start disappearing, the Pearly King demands answers. But that's the least of Oscar's worries - all he wants to do is kill some cockroaches. The problem is, he's using a chemical weapon to do it. The Pirates of Maryland Point is a fast-paced, who-dunnit, Cockney comedy caper packed with pirates and pie and mash. "For fans of Robert Rankin, Jasper Fforde or Douglas Adams."
