TheLast Light

The light marks the only safe way across. One July night, it led a woman into the sea.

As Wrackmoor marks the hundred-and-fiftieth anniversary of the Cormorant wreck, historian Iseult Halloran crosses the causeway by lantern light — and never reaches the other side. The island calls it a tide misjudged. Then innkeeper Wren Wilder discovers the light was not where it should have been. With the crossing closed and old suspicions surfacing, Wren must follow a false light and a lie hidden inside an ordinary act of kindness — and ask whether uncovering a secret gives her the right to decide who should know it.

Welcome to Wrackmoor

A tidal English island where the road disappears twice a day.

For six hours, no one comes. No one leaves. And whatever the island has decided to keep, it keeps well.

The Island Map

A small rock, a long memory, and too many places where a body could be hidden. Naturally, tourism boards keep forgetting to mention that part.

The map can later become fully clickable by location. For now it gives the site its spine, which is apparently healthier than most human posture.

Read the Series

Atmospheric, slow-burn, closed-circle mysteries. Clean, character-led, and increasingly suspicious of anyone with a dry coat in wet weather.
