The Season of Light

Book Two in the Tyger Series

Available April 2025

Prepare to be captivated by a story that weaves together the rich history of an island steeped in mystery with the raw, visceral experience of war, leaving you questioning what is real and what is imagined.

In the remote and enigmatic archipelago of Las Ladrones, where the remnants of colonial rule still linger, a British Special Forces officer, Major Leo Austin, wakes up in a dilapidated hospital with no memory of how he got there. Fractured memories of his past—his service in Afghanistan and Iraq, his upbringing in England, and a recent mission gone wrong in the dense jungles of the Cordillera mountains—haunt him. As he tries to piece together the events that led to his mysterious injuries, Leo is thrust into a complex web of power, history, and war.

Leo’s journey takes him deep into the heart of Las Ladrones, where two powerful families—the Santiagos, descendants of the first Spanish conquistadors, and the DeVeras, a family rooted in the island’s indigenous past—are locked in a deadly struggle for control. As Leo navigates this treacherous landscape, he encounters Maya, a woman whose life he has irrevocably altered, yet whom he cannot remember. Her motives remain as enigmatic as the island itself, sending Leo on a perilous path to uncover the truth.

Haunted by the ghosts of his past and the uncertainty of his future, Leo finds himself caught in a war that is not his own, in a land where ancient gods still whisper in the winds and the jungle is alive with the echoes of centuries of conflict. As the boundaries between reality and memory blur, Leo must confront the dark corners of his mind and the deep-seated forces that threaten to consume him.

"The Season of Light" is a gripping tale of survival, redemption, and the relentless search for truth in a world where the past is never truly buried. In this psychological thriller, the line between sanity and madness is as thin as the edge of a blade, and the only way out is through the darkness that lies within.
