HAPPY PUBLICATION DAY TO MEEEEE 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳
#TheDyingLight is out now (sort of 😬🤦♂️). I really hope you enjoy it. I think in a lot of ways I’m prouder of this story than I was of Dark Island. I can’t wait for you all to take a trip back to Orkney with Freya! 🌅💀⛴️🚓

Day 22 of Book Advent. The door opens revealing The Dying Light by @SpacemanDan13. The secrets Dan revealed in the second book of the Orkney Mysteries are mind-blowing. You will lose yourself in the darkness of this mythical island. Freya hasn't been more exposed. Check it out.
