          	Time Agent Triple Oh plans to trap Murga in Hong Kong without telling me I’m the bait. When Murga’s thugs kidnap me with a helicopter, Triple Oh is forced to rescue me.
          	
          		‘A thousand pardons for my tardiness,’ Triple Oh bellowed as he ducked a punch from the co-pilot.  
          	
          		I don’t know how he did it but the co-pilot was sliding over Triple Oh’s back and head first out the open door. 
          	
          		Fortunately, the addition of Triple Oh’s considerable weight had pulled the helicopter down.  We were touching the roof but precariously near the edge.
          	
          		The pilot was gaping at Triple Oh in horror and suddenly he threw open his door and stepped out.  With one less person on board the helicopter leapt into the air.  We were flying over the edge of the building roof without a pilot!  And I was handcuffed to my seat!  
          	
          	
          	Yonnie and Treeka, daughter programs of Dr Zhang’s quantum computer, Mandia, annoyed that Murga is using Mandia for illegal time travel, send Murga to Han China in 208 CE.
          	
          	When he returns, Murga retaliates by sending Dr Zhang and his engineer, Denny, back to Han China.  And Yonnie and Treeka cannot bring them back to Silverwood School unless Licia, Miguel and I find them.
          	
          	Unfortunately, we arrive in Xiangyang, China just as the warlord, Cho Cho, invades Jingzhou Province with a huge army.

I just started publishing UNDERCOVER  - GOOSE

          and will be publishing the complete story over the next few weeks.
          
          
          The following is a teaser from first chapters. 
          
          The door opened suddenly and a very large man with long arms squeezed through  —  the gorilla from the Christmas bus trip.  He was gripping the collar of an orange leather coat worn by an elderly woman with orange hair . . . my upstairs gun-nut neighbour, Beryl.
          
          	‘I found this bag lady snooping around,’ he said and he swung Beryl off her feet like a rag doll.  ‘I recognized her from the bus trip. She shot out our tires.  And look what I found in her shopping bag.’  
          
          	He brandished a compact machine pistol . . . Beryl’s Uzi. 
          
          	‘Awooo!’ A tiny bundle of black fur raced from the door and sank its teeth into the gorilla’s ankle.  My dog Pacman to the rescue.  He was closely followed by a Canada goose . . . my uncle Dunc.

Dunc MacPhun convinced me that my stories should be shorter and easier to read so I revised and republished my first book  using the series title UNDERCOVER.  
          
          Book 1, UNDERCOVER - ON THE TITANIC, is now available on Wattpad.

          In which, Mom and Dad have disappeared in China and my Uncle Dunc is a talking, break-dancing Canada goose.  Time Agent Triple Oh has been assigned to protect me from Murga and I am stuck with my grumpy Grandma.  What else could go wrong?  
          
          Well, my new school has a quantum computer with really, real virtual reality and I find myself on the Royal Mail Ship Titanic when she is about to collide with an iceberg.  Luckily, I have two friends and one goose uncle.
          
          
          The second edition of UNDERCOVER - WHITE OUT (Book 2) is now in publishing.

          Meanwhile Triple Oh, is trying to arrest Murga for illegal time travel, and theft of Strontium-90 for a radio-active contamination bomb.
          
          Readers comments:-
          
          ‘So, so good, the humour is great!  The smoke trailing out of the bag, lovely detail - the story gets better and better.’
          
          ‘Brilliant! You are a very good story  teller, I love the breadth of the writing, smells, virtual reality plausibility and the detail - ‘poured himself tea from a vacuum flask.’  I was there with them’.

I can highly recommend Dunc Macphun series ‘Who the Hell are We?’ on Wattpad.
          
          He is now putting out a new edition in shorter books and updating much of the information with many new new videos.  If you like the history of science and technology in easy to read form, this work is ideal.
