The Book Of The Summer: Season Two is even stranger than the last. Set during those blistering summers of the early noughties, this is a classic coming-of-age tale, infused with the supernatural: a perfect read for lovers of nostalgia and scares.
“It’s June 19th 2073, and a stranger remains present in Daniel Ottoman’s home.
Only yesterday, Daniel was made to recount the summer of 2004, but the story isn’t over yet. For some reason, the stranger wants him to continue — to tell him about the summer of 2005, when everything got even stranger.
And so, against his will, Daniel must place himself back into his childhood. He must remember the death of Tia Munro, and the terrible truth that rocked the village of Deanshire. He must remember the hider in the hedgerow, the rats in the abattoir.
He must remember Cal. The boy who saw The Ogle with his own eyes, and led Daniel on the strangest of adventures, paved with fire and blood.
The stranger is waiting to hear it. To hear all of it. From the sunlit beginning, right through to the shadowed end. Before he kills him…
The book of the summer continues.”

EARLY CRITICAL AND READER PRAISE
‘Edgar D Jackson’s writing style is, as always, vivid and immersive and he does a great job of stepping into the minds of his characters.’ - Priscilla, Goodreads
‘Curiosity definitely led the way with this one, and the suspense was superb.’ - Zoe, Goodreads
‘I am always floored by Jackson’s writing, but it’s a rarity to be invested at the very first sentence of a story. This book does that and more — I didn’t want to put it down, but at some point one must suffer the hangover provoked by an incredible book.’ - Carissa, Goodreads
