When Ian, the We Offer Wellness CEO, has time to sharpen his pen he likes to write, and on 5th November his 35th book is being published. His previous works have included three number 1 best sellers and have been a mixture of books on bands like The Jam, The Who and The Beatles. He has also co-written several autobiographies which have included Rick Buckler of The Jam and Lee Thompson of Madness. And then alongside the music books he has also enjoyed writing fiction. And there’s even been a children’s book called Sky and the Bell Guardians which he wrote with his daughter Josie when she was just nine years old.
The Unspeakable Lady Highwaymen sees Josie and Ian reunite for the first, in what they hope will be a series of novels about some women living in Kent in the 18th Century who decide to become highwaymen.
If you enjoy a period red with a bit of twist, and you are not afraid to turn the pages, grab a cuppa, find somewhere quiet and be transported back in time…
The blurb!
With public executions on the ancient Penenden Heath still within living memory of the elders of Kent, England, a new threat lingers in the shadows of the North Downs-the unspeakable Lady Highwaymen.
What motivates them? Who are they? Are they coming for you?
Father and daughter, Ian and Josie reunite for a second book, a tale of the future that’s set in the past. Set in Kent in the winter of 1775, The Unspeakable Lady Highwaymen is a story of courage, resistance and disruption.
It’s a call to action to be brave in the face of oppression and it takes no prisoners. And is packed full of themes that continue to resonate through society even today. Alongside the fictional aspect of the novel, the authors have also included factual references from the period, as they relate to life in the 18th Century in both England and during the tensions of the American Revolutionary War.
The Unspeakable Lady Highwaymen is an original untold story that has been waiting to be written. There’s romance, there’s mystery, there’s being transported back in time, and Josie and Ian have created characters you will warm to, despise, detest and fall in love with. It’s a story that truly stands up and delivers…
