Exciting news today as I got to see what will probably be the cover art for Jovian Sunset, out in March. I’m sure we’ll do a cover reveal soon but it is absolutely fab. Will be as stunning as the cover for The Triton Run.

The New York Essential plan is being eliminated entirely next year due to the GOP healthcare cuts. People’s lives are at stake.

Take a chance on The Great Orme...
The shadowed cliffs dominate the sea, and hypnotised by its will, possessed by its power, and by its brutality, they dominate Zach. They wait for something to happen, for someone to crush...

One of the most engrossing and twisty books we've done to date.

I absolutely love the immersive nature of the 40s Yorkshire setting and the thrilling portrayal of the trial in this.

Hugely recommended for fans of WW2 fiction 😍
