British author Alexander Lane has almost died on several continents. When he’s not writing, he’s thinking about travelling around our planet or into the stars. Much like Max Headroom, he lives about 15 minutes into the future. He’ll be wondering whether scuba diving is truly as safe as it is incredible, planning his next trip to somewhere that’s hopefully more fun than fatal, or dreaming of the many ways that space travel could be both wonderful and dangerous. He always buys good travel insurance, and so should you. He graduated with a distinction from the creative writing MA at St Mary’s University, Twickenham, in 2020. He's currently working on horror and sci-fi stories about myths, monsters and robots. He lives in the UK and always enjoys meeting readers and other authors at cons and book fairs.

Quillnip Manor looked like the perfect place for Simon, Carrie, Tony and their friends to hold their annual writing retreat. An old country pile with no internet or mobile signal, just comfy rooms, a great wine cellar and a warm pub in the nearby village. When Tony finds an old manual typewriter, he’s convinced it will help him break through his writer’s block. Soon he can’t stop writing — and those pages don’t look anything like Tony’s usual work. When Simon and the others try to intervene, Tony makes it clear that he’ll protect the typewriter and keep writing, no matter what the cost. As the pages flow, so does the blood, and Tony’s friends discover that Quillnip Manor hides a dark story that won’t let any of them leave until it’s been told.
