Brace Yourself For ROUGH AIR!

Later this month, I'm excited to be sharing something exclusive to all my readers, as a thank-you for your ongoing support: a brand new serial short story!  


Rough Air is set between the events of Ghost and Shadow, following Marc Dane as he uses his wits to take down a group of hijackers on board an airliner. I did some interesting research into what you might use to stop a mid-air takeover, given all you get on a commercial flight is plastic cutlery... You'll have to read the story to find out what I came up with for Marc!

LIVE AND DIRECT


https://jswallow.com
I'm happy to announce that from today, I have a new home on the World Wide Web; you can visit me at jswallow.com.

I've worked on the new site to create something simple, quick to navigate and most importantly, filled with stuff. You'll find information on all of my professional writing career to date - every book, every short story, every script and video game - complete with images, audio clips, trailers and videos. You can keep up to date with my 'coming soon' section and my (somewhat irregular) blog!

There's a fully indexed 'library' of my work categorized by themes, series and subject, covering all my original fiction and tie-ins. I'll be writing Author's Notes as I go, so readers can learn more about the stories behind my projects over the last twenty years!

There's also a 'free fiction' category, which I'll be adding to regularly over the next month or so, in the run-up to the launch of my next Marc Dane thriller novel Shadow


On Friday April 26th, and on each following Friday over five weeks, I'll be putting up a chapter of a brand new Marc Dane novelette called "Rough Air", free to download in ebook form for all visitors to the site. More on that next week!

My new site will be taking over the duties of the Red Flag blog in the coming months, but there will be a bit of overlap before I shut that down, so if you want to continue to follow me and my writing, please update your browsers and bookmarks accordingly!

SHADOW cover reveal (redux)!

The release of my next Marc Dane novel Shadow is fast approaching, and we've had a new pass over the cover art since I last talked about it - the new colours are really striking and I hope it’ll make the book stand out on store shelves...

 
Things are about to go viral in Dane's most dangerous adventure yet . . .

Ex-MI6 field technician Marc Dane and his partner - former US Delta Force sniper Lucy Keyes - are pitted against their most terrifying challenge yet, when a genius bio-researcher with the ability to create a deadly biological weapon is kidnapped by a ruthless terrorist.

Their desperate search for the missing scientist takes them across the world, from the desolate wilderness of Iceland to the dark underbelly of a fracturing Europe, where they will discover a shocking atrocity in the making.

Backed by shadowy interests, a cadre of hard-line ultra-right-wing extremists plan to unleash a lethal virus among the population of a major European city.

Only Marc Dane can prevent this devastating attack from taking place - before a whole continent is plunged into terror... 

Shadow is out in hardcover, export trade paperback and eBook editions at the end of May,  and you can pre-order it at Amazon (click Here) or wherever you buy your fiction.

But a new cover design isn’t all I have to announce; I'm currently putting the finishing touches on a brand new serial short story, which will be available in free downloadable chapters in the run-up to the release of Shadow.

More details soon...!
