Forewords by William Roache, OBE,
aka Ken Barlow of ITV's Coronation Street
William Roache, OBE, aka Ken Barlow of Coronation Street, supporting The Perfect Pair Dolphin Trilogy and cetacean rights.
William Roache, OBE, became a fervent supporter of The Perfect Pair Dolphin Trilogy book series after reading the first book in one sitting. The manuscript was delivered to him by our dear friend, the late Sheila Reeves Rigby, an author in her own right.
The Perfect Pair: The Enchanted Mirror had such a powerful effect on him, that he promptly telephoned us to ask if he could write the foreword – an offer we accepted with great delight.
However, his support has not stopped there: William Roache, OBE, is now a public voice for cetacean welfare – a true champion, speaking out on behalf of the world’s precious Atlanteans.

There are literally hundreds – if not thousands – of academic works written about dolphins. This is certainly not one of them, for within these pages dwells a graphic story of the plight of the commercial dolphin - The Perfect Pair Dolphin Trilogy is a damning exposé of the captive cetacean industry.
The first book in the trilogy, The Perfect Pair: The Enchanted Mirror (Matador, 2012), is now a core text for the BA(Hons) English Language and Creative Writing course at the University of Salford, and won the Bronze Award in the Wishing Shelf Independent Book Awards 2013. A chapter also won first prize in a prestigious literary competition held by the Manchester Evening News.
Celebrity reviewers are already describing the full trilogy as ‘a masterpiece’. It will appeal to those with an interest in the realities of animal training.
Like Gabriela Cowperthwaite’s influential 2013 documentary, Blackfish, this story will change people’s perception of captive cetaceans forever.
"You will never view a dolphin in the same light again."
