The object of writing the book was in the help to search for Madeleine, No?

The book we were told was agony to write and they hoped it would be read not only by the abductor but someone close to them who held the key to where Madeleine is.
The truth, and one must laugh because the McCanns really cannot help themselves , the book is to explain to the people of Portugal what loving parents they are and to make them understand the 'British culture'  ADD to this, after they have accused the Portuguese Police force of covering up five cases of paedophilia and that no one searched for Madeleine, one can only imagine the hurt and pain felt right now in PDL. 
Mitchell can spin as much as he likes on this one, I doubt very much the people of PDL will want to see this lying pair ever again. While the good people of this sleepy village searched for Kate's daughter. Kate McCann spent her evening lying, ringing friends in England about broken and smashed shutters.
If the book has revealed anything about Kate, more than we already know, her trait of being a pathalogical liar that is , she is a vulgar woman without class and certainly without pride . The book as they now have explained has nothing at all to do with Madeleine, it is all about them, LOOK at me, LISTEN to me . Me Me Me.....

Kate and Gerry McCann are due to return to Portugal on Monday to launch the Portuguese version of the new book about the case written by Kate McCann, entitled Madeleine.

Clarence Mitchell, spokesman for the McCann family, told the Algarve Resident on Wednesday: “There is no formal launch event or news conference as such for the Madeleine book.”

However, it has been confirmed by the Portuguese PR agency handling the Portuguese launch that Gerry and Kate will be coming to Lisbon.

“Kate and Gerry will be in Portugal for a very short period of time, during which they will be interviewed by Portuguese journalists,” said spokesman from the Portuguese PR company.

The spokesman added that the couple would not be have time during the visit to come down to the Algarve to Praia da Luz, where earlier this month supporters of the McCanns held a vigil to mark the fourth anniversary of the disappearance of Madeleine.

“I can guarantee you that there will not be time for that.” said the PR spokesman.

Talking about the launch in Portugal, Kate McCann spoke of her desire to engage the Portuguese people and for them to see another side of the couple who have been criticised in the past in the Portuguese media.

Kate McCann told The Sun newspaper: “I don’t feel we have had the chance to tell our side of the story in Portugal yet. I am hoping people will read the book and realise what kind of people we are – loving parents.”

Gerry said: “I think there are a lot of cultural differences and sometimes people there didn’t understand why we did certain things and the book will hopefully address that.”

Meanwhile, it was announced on May 13 that the Metropolitan Police had been asked to “bring their expertise” to the case of Madeleine McCann.

Kate and Gerry McCann published an open letter in The Sun newspaper to Prime Minister David Cameron asking for a case review on May 12, coinciding with the UK launch of the Kate McCann book Madeleine and the eighth birthday of their missing daughter.

The letter said: “It is not right that a young, vulnerable British citizen has essentially been given up on...we are seeking a joint independent, transparent and comprehensive review of all the information held in relation to Madeleine’s disappearance.”

David Cameron responded to Kate and Gerry McCann and in a letter he said: “your ordeal is every parent´s worst nightmare and my heart goes out to you both...I am acutely aware of the frustration you must feel as more time goes by and yet no news is forthcoming.”

He added: “I have asked the Home Secretary to look into what more the Government could do to help Madeleine...I sincerely hope this fresh approach will provide the investigation with the new momentum that it needs.”

A statement by the McCanns said: “The expertise of the Metropolitan Police is renowned and we are reassured by our government’s commitment to search for Madeleine.”

During a UK radio interview on May 17 the Commissioner of the Metropolitan police, Sir Paul Stephenson, said that there is “always a chance” that Madeleine could still be found despite the reality that some of the leads in the case may have gone cold after four years.

He said: “There is always a chance. When you receive a request, supported by the Prime Minister, from the Home Secretary, you take that very seriously. This is not unique. On balance, I think it was the right thing to do. We do review these sort of cases and I think there may be some benefit here.”

He added: “We will lend our expertise, with the Portuguese authorities staying in the lead. It will go to our homicide team and the people who are used to doing reviews.”

However, the reviewing of the case has caused controversy in the UK, with Met Police Authority member Lord Harris writing on his blog about the intervention of David Cameroon in the case.

“It drives a coach and horses through the draft protocol issued by the Home Office designed to preserve the operational independence of the police,” he said.

He added: “It again embroils their officers in a high profile investigation, where the chances of success are unclear, and which will divert limited investigative resources away from other matters.”
