The paperback of my book SALTWATER MANSIONS is out today. It's about what happened when I discovered a woman had vanished without trace and I fell down a rabbit hole about it. I was not the only one. Buy it to use as a fan if you like. Handy link in the reply.

The paperback of SALTWATER MANSIONS comes out on June 20th, which is soon, it's undeniable. Don’t miss this golden opportunity to get your hands on the book one recent reader took to the internet to succinctly call a “waste of time”. Nicer comments also available, as seen on cover, here.

An investigation into the missing occupant of a Margate flat turns into a rumination on the many ways people can disappear from places, and how places change and themselves effectively disappear, and how these things go hand in hand with the various movements of grief. Utterly superb, essential read

I really enjoyed Saltwater Mansions and made me think a lot about how where we are at (in life) and what we are experiencing or mourning impacts how we digest stories and life. Was not what I was expecting, and grateful for that. David is an incredible writer.

I fell down a rabbit hole, and then I wrote a book about it. It’s called Saltwater Mansions and it’s out in June. www.thebookseller.com/rights/phoen...
