How do we know the quote comes directly from his friend ?

Because it says so, unless you're claiming that the Mirror made the whole quote up and falsely attributed it to Amaral's publisher and friend?  In which case we may as well disbelieve every single word that appears in every newspaper whether the source is named or not.  Happy to play that game if you want.

We shall soon have an answer to this particular question estion within 28 days.  Meanwhile keep an eye on Portuguse online booksellers.  It would be most unusual for a book by such a world renowned celeb and author not to have his new book put up for pre-sales.

Maybe it's one of those Kindle-only books, self-published? Or maybe he's waiting for Sonia Poulton's video to come out first...

The former police chief who shockingly claimed the McCann's covered up their daughter's death is preparing to publish a second explosive book.



Goncalo Amaral claimed that Madeleine died in 2007 and her parents covered it up, sparking a huge police response both from the UK and abroad.

He published a book in 2008 making his claims and Kate and Gerry McCann, parents of Madeleine, who has been missing for nearly a decade, tried to sue him for libel.

He is now putting the final touches to a second book and is said to be looking for a British publisher.

However the McCanns, who have previously dubbed Amaral's version of events as 'poisonous lies', claim 'no publisher will dare touch it', according to The Sun.

A source said: 'If Mr Amaral’s attempts to get his current book or his new one about Madeleine published in the UK lawyers will take immediate action.'

Mr Amaral worked on the case when Madeleine, then three, went missing from the apartment the McCanns were staying in at Praia da Luz as Kate and Gerry ate dinner with friends.

He was moved off the case and resigned six months later but wrote his book using police files as he put forward a theory she had died in the apartment.

Amaral published a book in 2008 making his claims and Kate and Gerry McCann, parents of Madeleine, who has been missing for nearly a decade, tried to sue him for libel.

The McCanns took legal action, saying there was no evidence and his work was defamatory.

The appeal hearing in Lisbon which ruled against the McCanns was held in private.

Mr Amaral, 56, who the McCanns first sued for libel in June 2009, won the lengthy legal fight after judges decided he had the 'right to freedom of expression'.

Would that be like an unproven abduction ?

No, just the possible abduction.

[stephen25000]

No, just the possible abduction.

..and the possible accidental death, or walking out of the apartment.

..and the possible accidental death, or walking out of the apartment.

Yes we have looked at them all.

[stephen25000]

Yes we have looked at them all.

Really.

[Robittybob1]

Really.

Over the last year I remember all these topics have come up.

This is far too important a question to leave to the press hacks.  I have queried this with our Portuguese contacts so hopefully I will have a definitive reply for the forum very soon.

There is no book for reasons that are obvious
And remember I said this BEFORE the papers ran the story

Gonçalo has already gone on record stating that he was putting the finishing touches to his latest book but maybe he is delaying publication due to the imminent anniversary.  Time will tell.

There is a much more sinister story yet to tell, consequently, the British public need to read it to understand what really went on in Portugal, Spain and Morocco.
