Paris, 1855. Jules Verne, struggling playwright and frustrated dreamer,
finds himself whisked through time, first into the Cretaceous Period,
and then into the far future, on a perilous quest to save the world from
the tyranny of Robur, the insane Master of the World. Verne is famous
for giving the world such classics as Around the World in 80 Days,
Journey to the Centre of the Earth and Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the
Sea. But what is not known is that Verne experienced an adventure equal
to any he wrote about, a quest in which he met mad airship captains,
beautiful rebels, and a race of ant-like aliens - and at the same time
brought about the salvation of planet Earth and the dawn of a new Golden
Age for humankind.
Throughout most of their short, violent, disorganised and unrewarding
spree as Depression-era bank robbers, Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrow
were accompanied by W. D. Jones — drifter, driver, opportunist,
psychopath, fantasist and teenager. Towards the end of their time
together, having endured Clyde’s mockery and abuse, and despite his
obvious affection for Bonnie, Jones abandoned the duo and was swiftly
tracked down and arrested. Awaiting trial, and keen to save his own
young neck, Jones was visited by Captain Frank Hamer, ex-Texas Ranger
and the lawman tasked with bringing Parker and Barrow’s trail of bloody
and increasingly reckless and seamless violence to an end. Hamer and
Jones met on several occasions and, manipulative and contradictory as
ever, Jones became instrumental in Hamer’s eventual plan to destroy the
two killers. Promising an eager, clamouring press that he was keeping a
full and detailed record of everything that passed between himself and
Jones, Frank Hamer’s memoirs make only a single reference to his
captive’s lengthy confession and reveal nothing whatsoever of Jones’s
own endlessly-shifting, self-serving and desperate revelations.
