I cannot begin to tell you how difficult it is for me to make this announcement.

You, the reader, take a leap of faith when you purchase a book from an author. That leap is riskier when the book is the first in a series. And it is even riskier when it is also a debut novel.

When I released Eagle Cove, I announced that I would release Seventy Six Falls in September 2016. As I began writing, however, it became clear to me rather quickly that I would not finish the book in time for a September release. But I felt confident that I could complete it in time for an early November release.
