DarkSider News: July 2025 - General News!

  

 

"I kept my face pressed to the quadcopter window, looking out at the long stretch of beach below.

I'd lived in Australia for three weeks now, and I loved it. To be fair, I hadn't seen much of my new home since I'd been too busy working. But what I had seen, I liked. The weather was fantastic, the house I'd been given was cute and comfortable and the landscape was amazing--from rolling green hills to swathes of native bushland. It was so different to where I'd grown up in Southern California."

North (Book 2, Hunter Squad) by Anna Hackett
