Readers will now be able to hear two sides of the story surrounding the disappearance of Madeleine McCann as her mother, Kate McCann, is due to release a book detailing the case from the McCann family’s point of view on May 12 while the former police inspector in the case Gonçalo Amaral, has been granted permission to resell his controversial book Maddie – A Verdade da Mentira (Maddie - The Truth of the Lie).
Madeleine, the book, has been written by Kate McCann to help boost funds for the search to find her daughter Madeleine.
It is due to be released in the UK on May 12 to coincide with Madeleine’s eighth birthday.
A spokesman for the McCann family has confirmed to the Algarve Resident that a version will be translated into Portuguese and launched here shortly after the UK release.
The spokesman said: “The book was written to give Kate and Gerry’s account about what happened on May 3. Kate and Gerry felt that it would help people to have their point of view as there have been several opinions and alleged facts everywhere, but the least of them being from Madeleine’s parents.
“They hope that the book could help people to remember something or for people who might know something to be prompted to step forward and share information that will help the investigation.”
Money raised from the sale of the book will be donated to the Find Madeleine Fund to help continue the work of investigators who are searching for Madeleine.
Appeal rejected
Meanwhile, former police inspector Gonçalo Amaral is now able to place his controversial book back on sale after the Supreme Court rejected an appeal by Kate and Gerry McCann to ban the book.
The decision of the Supreme Court came on March 18, just weeks before the planned release date of the book by Kate McCann.
Gonçalo Amaral told the Algarve Resident that the decision to be able to sell his book again was a “victory for democracy” and added that the public should be free to read all versions of the case including his and that of Kate McCann.
Gonçalo Amaral said: “I have not read the book by Kate McCann but believe that they have the right to freedom of expression to be able to write what they like about the case.”
While the former police inspector did not criticise the plans of the McCanns to release their own version of the case, he said that he was unsure if it would be able to help in the search for their daughter who disappeared from their holiday apartment in May 2007.
“Could the book help to find Madeleine? It depends on what it says so we will have to wait and see if it can contribute in any way to an investigation, and if it can, it would then become something that could be used as evidence in a case,” said Gonçalo Amaral.
He also spoke of his rights to publish in the UK: “I have the right to publish any book in the UK and the British people also have the right to be able to read and know about all the versions about what may have happened during the night of May 3, 2007.”

KATE MCCANN’S EMOTIONAL BATTLE TO FINISH MADELEINE TRIBUTE
KATE MCCANN’S EMOTIONAL BATTLE TO FINISH MADELEINE TRIBUTE
Madeleine McCann went missing at the age of three in May 2007, during a family holiday in Portugal
Monday March 28,2011
By Tracey Kandohla and David Pilditch
HEARTBROKEN Kate McCann has been overwhelmed with emotion writing a book about her daughter Madeleine’s disappearance, friends revealed last night.
Kate is now close to finishing the deeply-personal account of her nightmare, which she hopes will raise millions of pounds for the dwindling fund set up to find her daughter.
Any money will pay for private detectives to continue the search for Madeleine, who went missing at the age of three in May 2007, during a family holiday in Portugal.
Last night a close friend said: “At times it has been heartbreaking for Kate.
“Not surprisingly, there have been many tears. But Kate has been strong and carried on for Madeleine’s sake.”
Kate, 42, a doctor from Rothley, Leicestershire, has been using extracts from her personal diary written in the days after Madeleine vanished.
She has also been relying on family and close friends to help jog her memory.
The friend told how Kate had been overwhelmed with emotion at times as she re-read the chapters.
But she insisted she had to carry on to help her desperate fight.
The friend said: “She is adamant it will be her very own account – written in her words – and has turned down offers by her publishers of a ghost writer.”
Kate has been helped by her husband Gerry and close friend Fiona Payne, who was also on the ill-fated holiday in the Algarve resort of Praia da Luz.
The book was originally due to be published on April 28 – just before the fourth anniversary of Madeleine’s disappearance.
But publishers Transworld postponed the release date by a fortnight because it would clash with the “media frenzy” surrounding the wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton on April 29.
Heart consultant Gerry, 42, has also postponed his own money-raising event – cycling from Portugal to England – because of the royal wedding.
Kate’s book, simply entitled “Madeleine”, will now be published on May 12. That is the day of Madeleine’s eighth birthday, underlining the book’s central message that her parents are convinced she is still alive.
The couple, who have five-year-old twins Sean and Amelie, have publicly told of their fear that lack of cash could make it impossible for them to continue searching for their daughter.
Gerry’s marathon fund-raising cycle ride from Portugal to England has been put back until the summer.
Gerry and three friends were due to begin the gruelling 2,000-mile journey from Praia da Luz to Rothley on May 3.
A family source said last night: “Gerry is disappointed because he was looking forward to the challenge to continue raising awareness and funds.”
