Ghost pirates? What a novel notion!

I apologise for not posting here more often. I have been worried, stressed, distracted for so long now it's becoming my new normal. However, if you're interested in my writing activities, I will soon have a new book out from US publisher Scare Street. See if you can guess what it might concern from this provisional cover.

Yes, there are pirates.

Of the Caribbean, as it happens.

Why no, I don't have a good lawyer. Why do you ask?
