Based on the biggest ever international online child abuse investigation, Hope Arises tells the story of DI Tom Ross, a complex, highly motivated child protection officer who battles police politics, technology and global boundaries to identify the depraved paedo master 'Son of God' (SOG.) With SOG behind bars Ross seamlessly replaces him with an undercover officer (UC) exposing the horrific scale of internet paedophilia. A heart wrenching true account of a small number of detectives thrown into a world where they need to find courage, initiative, creativity, and overwhelming spirit as they face some of the toughest of human situations. They have to make the right decision on every occasion in a new policing world where there are no procedures, policies or guidelines to go by. They cannot make a mistake, ever, otherwise a child will remain at risk from abuse and an offender free to continue abusing children. A new breed of detective novel, one that really places you in the investigation team.
Born in Cheltenham, Gloucestershire, England in 1958, Ian Tyler, was not the scholastic student the headmaster at Naunton Park Secondary School had hoped for. He was however, a great athlete and represented his school, and his county, at regional and national level in both athletics and football. From school, Ian joined the Royal Marine Commandos, winning the 'King's Badge' in The 211 King's Squad. In recognition, the Royal Navy sent a senior officer to the school who donated a book prize, to be awarded to the best all round student every year, finally giving the principal and one particular Biology teacher what they wanted, albeit a bit late. Awarded the coveted 'Green Beret' he served protecting the UK's national interests. In 1979 he joined the Police Service, embarking upon a career that lasted over 28 years until he retired as a Detective Chief Inspector. Ian served with Gloucestershire Police, The Metropolitan Police, Hampshire Police, The Regional Crime Squad, The National Crime Squad, The National Criminal Intelligence Service, the Serious and Organised Crime Agency and the Child Exploitation and Online Protection Centre (CEOP). At the latter he was a founder member of the operations faculty and the Virtual Global Taskforce. Ian was awarded magisterial tributes, and numerous commendations over his Police career, however, the awards he regards the most are the ones he received whilst at CEOP including an award presented by HRH Prince Edward in recognition for his outstanding contribution to child protection around the world. He is currently a deployable civilian expert with the UK's Stabilisation Unit, a member of the Stabilisation Unit's Preventing Sexual Violence in Conflict Initiative (PSVI), and a senior associate of Ineqe. He lives in New Zealand with his wife and son where he owns and runs a charter boat company.
