Lovely interview by @matt_fallaize with Sean McManus about his new book ‘The Teeth of the Conger’ - an historical adventure with strong Channel Islands focus. Excellent cover by Steve Harrison and I’m honoured to have been asked to create the maps.

For everyone who prefers to hold a book in their hands rather than reading long texts online (that’s most of us then), the latest word for a generation on what happened in Alderney during the occupation can be purchased online @blueormer ; all profits to charity. Link 👇
