“It is December 2001. Eight years on, Charlie remains imprisoned in a Saudi Arabian jail while Noor has made a life for herself and her child in a North Carolina mountain town.

After the recent 9/11 attacks the world is a very different place. Yet Charlie and Noor are faced with the same issue. Will they reunite? And if they do, will they ever be allowed to live in peace? It seems unlikely. After all Charlie is serving a life sentence and the Prince still has men searching for Noor and his child. Yet one thing that can never be extinguished is Charlie and Noor’s love for each other nor Noor’s love for her child. It means they are prepared to take risks that others would flee from.

In Release, the third and final novel in the Refuge Trilogy, N. G. Osborne concludes Noor and Charlie’s epic story. It takes us on a thrilling and emotional journey from Saudi Arabia to Pakistan and all the way across the United States, with one burning question ever present. Will Noor and Charlie finally be released from the forces that are so intent on tearing them apart?”

For those who have followed us for some time, you will know that I take 5 minutes out every now and then to promote Nick Osborne’s novels. Nick, you will remember (no pun intended), was one of the producers of “Remember Me” and I happen to forge a lovely friendship with him since about 2009.  I have been fortunate enough to proofread all 3 books from the trilogy “Refuge”, “Resilience” and now “Release”.   I mentioned last month that the release of Nick’s final instalment would be the end of July, but as happens with life things get busy.  For those who follow on Facebook or receive email updates from Nick, you will have been happy to receive the following update:

“Finally an official date for the release of Release.
It will come out on Kindle August 21st and in paperback approximately three weeks later. I am very happy with how it turned out and can’t wait to hear what you think.
Thank you for being so patient.I truly have appreciated all the support along the way.”

I hope you enjoy “Release” as much as I did.  This is a great story and all the way through reading the 3 novels I could imagine it being translated into a fantastic film.  Don’t worry I’m pretty sure I’ve mentioned that a few times to Nick.  So the long wait is almost over. Happy reading and if you are unfamiliar with Nick, you can check out more information at Nick’s website.  He’s a fascinating guy.

UPDATED 21 AUGUST 2015

“Release” is now available on Kindle from Amazon:

  • US  here
  • UK here
  • Australia here
  • Spain here
  • Germany here
  • For other territories please search for “Osborne Release”

UPDATED 1 OCTOBER 2015

For those, like me, who prefer reading actual books, “Release” is now available in paperback.

Get your copy from either Amazon US or Amazon UK.

I don’t need to tell you that it’s a fantastic read.

Also, here’s a little message from Nick:

“I would love to just make a quick pitch for a film a friend of mine has inspired and is in the process of making. Shannon Galpin has been back and forth to Afghanistan for many years now and in the process put herself in tremendous danger.  Her main mission is to inspire young Afghan women and one of the ways she does it is by helping them find bicycles and teaching them to ride. It sounds insane – it is something so simple and innocent yet in a country like Afghanistan it is something that Afghan women are discouraged from doing. If nothing else just check out the link to their film – I’ll think you’ll find it inspirational.

Thanks again for all your support for the books.”

Just taking a little moment out of our Rob news to help promote the wonderful Nick Osborne.  Yep that’s Nick smiling there with Rob on the Remember Me Set back in 2010.  I know there’s a few of you out there waiting for information about this.  As you know, we have been staunch supporters of Nick and like to give him this little corner of RPAU to help promote his books. As I’ve previously mentioned, I caught up with Nick for a drink when I was in LA last September and we talked about how he’s been busy with producing other projects and didn’t have as much time to write as he would have loved.  Back then he thought the book should be ready by May, but I received an email from Nick overnight letting me know that he’s finally completed the first draft of the final book of the trilogy “Release”.   According to Nick the draft is a little clunky and so he should have it ready to go by June or July this year (and no Sue I haven’t been given a draft yet so no spoilers).

Although we will keep you informed of the book’s release, you can also bookmark Nick’s website (links are also available on our sidebar for both books) or follow him on  Twitter and Facebook.

Excites – I cannot wait to see what finally happens to Charlie and Noor.  It better not make me cry Nick unless they are tears of joy!
