The Mystery of the Goodfellowes' Code

An ancient pact, a daring theft, a carved message, and an untimely disappearance set the scene for a cryptic mystery. When Seb and Herbert start their first term at Sennocke School, neither of them can envisage the journey that lies ahead of them to decipher a code that has remained a tantalising secret for two decades.
'A story of two young friends who stumble upon a cryptic mystery in their boarding school which proves to be key to a generations-old alumni pact. The characters are engaging and very likeable, the pace of the story is excellent, with one clue following another as the pair race to the conclusion.'
Mark wrote this story when he was a teacher preparing boys for entry to secondary school. There were a lot of boys who were going to be embarking on the boarding experience for the first time. It was written as a guide of sorts. It is an 'it's okay to cry' if you want to, warts and all account that also explores the fun and camaraderie that is to be had being away from home.
