Milton Keynes-based author A. F. E Smith will be seated and ready to meet you at Waterstone's, intu on Friday (Jan 29), for a signing session in support of her debut novel Darkhaven, which has just been published in paperback.
Here's the blurb-y bit: Ayla Nightshade never wanted to rule Darkhaven.
Yet her half brother Myrren hasn't inherited the family's ability to shapeshift, so their father, Florentyn, forces Ayla to take over as heir to the throne.
When Ayla is accused of Florentyn's brutal murder only Myrren believes her innocent and aids her escape.
A fugitive from her own guard, Ayla must now fight to clear her name if she is ever to wear the crown she never wanted and be allowed to return to the home she has always loved.
But does something more sinister than the power to shape shift lie at the heart of the Nightshade family line?
Pop to Waterstone's, take a copy of the book and the answer will be revealed.
A.F.E Smith will be in store from midday.
