I’m very pleased to say that The Rift is under contract with Evernight Teen, my excellent publisher, with a projected release in November 2015.

The Rift is the sequel to The Seventh, my debut novel released earlier this year. I’m planning for this to be a three-part series. Here’s the blurb for The Rift, which continues the story of Mimi and her six gifted friends.

The Rift – coming November 2015

“I longed for normality. Even our own, off-the-wall brand of normality.”

She’s finally got things together. Mimi’s dating a hot guy and has a place in the school’s Gifted Program with her awesome friends. Yes, she still attracts the dead. But there’s only one ghost these days, and he doesn’t seem to have an awful lot to say.

Just when Mimi’s life is looking pretty good for the first time in years, the unthinkable happens … one of the seven gifted teens is torn from their close-knit group. The unity of their circle shattered, things begin to go terribly wrong. It’s ruining their focus—and with the threat of the Astarion cult growing stronger each day, the gifted seven need all the focus they can muster.

In The Seventh, Mimi found her place in a circle of seven extraordinary teenagers. In The Rift, she must face what happens when the circle of seven is broken.

The process of writing The Rift was quite different to that of writing The Seventh (read about it in my guest post over at Bookaholics), but I’m really happy with how it has come out. Beta (draft version) readers have told me it’s better than the first one – and I can confirm that’s the one time when you WANT to hear a book is better than your book! 😉

Ordering details will be available soon, but in the meantime, please pop over to Goodreads where you can add the official The Rift listing to your ‘Want to Read’ shelf.
