Indie Spotlight of the Month

Welcome to the Indie Spotlight Page.

Here, I will share with you a chosen book from an Independently Published author which I have either thoroughly enjoyed, or am very much looking forward to reading.

In the past, I have confined this feature to a banner ad on the homepage, but I have read so many amazing indie books lately that I just needed to up my game!

You will find the details of this month's book and where you can grab it, below.

Armitage
by ATLAS CREED

I had the privilege of ARC reading this book around six months ago, and it instantly became one of my favourite books in recent memory. Atlas had spent so long promoting the book, building it up, and getting everything in place prior to launch that I was actually envious of his planning skills. Unfortunately, during the last weekend of August, Atlas revealed he had unexpectedly lost his job, plunging his home life into uncertainty and panic. To get this book perfect, Atlas had invested a lot of money into it, so please do check out the synopsis below and see if this book is for you.

SOME MEMORIES, LIKE SCARS, LINGER EVEN AFTER HEALING

Amidst the throes over the loss of her sister, Rebekah Daroh is confronted by a phantom. “Guardian,” it calls her as it searches her mind for something, or someone. Dragged into a realm of souls by the phantom, Rebekah begins to question her sister’s fate. With the help of unlikely allies, she sets out in search of answers.

Niko Ortez, a Special Agent with the FBI, works on a slew of cold cases concerning missing persons, one of which is Rebekah’s sister, Nicole. Upon examination, the routine cases reveal something much darker at play and Niko investigates the disappearances, equipped with a haunting theory.

Paths cross and secrets emerge at the Armitage Hotel, where a violent storm imprisons the guests with a killer. Searching for answers, what lies in store for the budding agent and grief-stricken young girl will change both of their lives.

CONTENT WARNING:

This story contains adult language and depictions of violence and sexual assault that some may find uncomfortable.

As I mentioned, this book became an instant favourite. I have reviewed it on my TikTok page, and also boosted the book last month in my Indie Boost series. It seems as though two separate stories in two different genres are running concurrently as you move through the book, but when they do intertwine, it is done with such brilliance and care that you wonder why you ever doubted it would happen.

Atlas himself is an Indie Author gem. He created Indie Author Connect which is a vast database of resources and connections for independent authors to navigate to find cover designers, narrators, and any other requirements you can think of.

So please show him support and buy this amazing book at a time when he needs us the most.
