The False Rose
Jakob Wegelius, Peter Graves
When Sally Jones and The Chief discover a curious rose-shaped necklace hidden onboard their beloved Hudson Queen, it’s the start of another perilous adventure for the seafaring gorilla and her faithful friend. Determined to get to the bottom of the mystery, they set sail for Glasgow, but there fall into the clutches of one of the city’s most ruthless gangs, commanded by a fearsome smuggler queen who will stop at nothing to snatch the necklace for herself.
Held prisoner hundreds of miles from friendship and safety, Sally Jones must use all her strength, determination and compassion to escape and unravel the mysterious story of the False Rose – a twisting tale leading all the way from Lisbon to Shetland and the South Seas.
Reviews
I loved this book, mainly because of the story line and the way that it was written by Jacob Wegelius. My favourite character was definitely Harvey because he seemed suspicious at first and as if you had no idea if he was a good character or a bad one, you would feel as if you couldn’t trust him. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone else, but you’d need to read “The Murderer’s Ape” first as it comes before “The false Rose” in this two-book series. This is probably one of the most best written books that I’ve ever read.
