About
After a career as an actuary in financial services, Stephen took redundancy in 2022. This freed him to focus on his passion for writing supernatural and techno fiction. His 2023 debut novel, Dark Swans, explores these themes. It’s set mainly in Gothic North Yorkshire and York, where he lives with his wife, son and cat.
Dark Swans
What if you found a way to cheat death?
How far would you go to protect the secret?
Science meets the secrets of the Tree of Life in this technothriller that is bound to keep you on the edge of your seat.
Do you know the thrill and frustration of having information that the characters do not have? You see them just falling short of doing what would lead them to uncover a great mystery and all you can do is yell at the pages like some kind of creepy, ghost voyeur in their lives. Dark Swans is so good that I had a couple of those moments. I loved every moment of simultaneously not knowing what was really going on and still feeling like I have something to work with. It was truly thrilling! Reitumetse Mokoena
