The Mystery of the Sixty-Five Roses eBook Release

I’m excited to be finally revealing what I have been working on the last few months!

The Mystery of the Sixty-Five Roses is now available as an ebook from Amazon, iTunes & Kobo.

The Mystery of the Sixty-Five Roses was written to raise awareness of Cystic Fibrosis and all proceeds from the sale of this book go towards helping CFWA achieve its vision of “Lives unaffected by CF”.

The Mystery of the Sixty-Five Roses is based upon a common mispronunciation of the words ‘Cystic Fibrosis’. This has led to the rose being associated for Cystic Fibrosis fundraising around the world.

With Sixty-Five Roses Day 2015 fast approaching, (Friday 29th May) this is the perfect time to relaunch my book.
Join Jeremy on his quest as he slips into ‘Super Stealth Mode’ and help him find the sixty-five roses!
