Josh and his father, Steve, go to Lightning Ridge, an outback opal mining town in Australia, in the hope of making a fortune mining opals. All does not go to plan when there is a catastrophic event in the mine they enter. Steve, searching for help for Josh, comes across a team who are working to retrieve extremely rare and precious opalised dinosaur bones. Lightning Ridge is the only place in the world where these precious artefacts are found. They are not the only people who would like to recover such a valuable fossil, and in the dead of night Josh unwittingly becomes involved in a robbery attempt. Will they foil the robbers? Will the opalised bone be safe?
Rose first became involved in working on dinosaur bones in Queensland in 2008. Since then she has qualified as an Honorary Technician with the Australian Age of Dinosaurs in Winton, and worked on the bones from a number of different dinosaurs found in the area. She has also extensively explored the 'dinosaur triangle' in Queensland taking in Hughenden, Richmond, and as far south as Eromanga where she spent time with staff at the Eromanga Natural History Museum, home of Cooper, who at that stage was the largest dinosaur found in Australia.This decade long interest has resulted in a number of children's books. Rose's extensive knowledge and experience in the field combined with her work experience in literary support for reading skills, particularly in the school environment, inspired her to write. This has resulted in a series of books written to engage younger readers in interesting, real life situations featuring dinosaurs. Although fiction, her books are based around actual situations with Australian dinosaurs. Rose's books are perfect for early independent readers of mid to late primary school age.
