​Hot off the press! A novel by Wendy Murphy
one of the school owners

​
Once Upon a Thousand Hills
​

Picture


 Please note: this is an adult novel, definitely not suitable for children!
I’m excited to inform you that Wendy Murphy, one of the BISC owners, has written a novel which has now been published on Amazon. (Skorupski is Wendy’s maiden name.) If you are interested in reading a ‘love story with a difference’, involving an unusual mix of spice, humour, and true events in recent history, then this could be for you.
Here’s what the book’s very first reviewer had to say: This novel skips seamlessly between hilarity, page-turning suspense and dives into serious subject matter. I loved the risqué jokes and observations, as well as the fascinating theme of the Rwandan Genocide, which is masterfully worked into the plot (I don’t want to spoilt anything, let’s just say that I love the way it creeps up onto the main character, as well as into the storyline.)
Wendy’s motivation for writing her novel was the trip that she and her family made to Rwanda in October 2016, inspired by her daughter’s IB history study (under Mr Lagendijk) of the Genocide against the Rwandan Tutsi.
As a special introductory promotion, the eBook will be available on Amazon as a free download this weekend, starting at 8.00 am Saturday morning, March 23rd.
