"Lawson delights in weaving suspense, sharp plot twists, dollops of fantasy,
and occasional moments of delicious terror into a surprising variety of books
."

Out of the Dark is both a gripping stand-alone novel and a sequel to A Blinding Light. The story follows the characters through the aftermath of the 1917 Halifax Explosion and into the Great Influenza Pandemic of 1918 while the Great War rages on.

      "An inspirational survival story. Vivid and precise details make Halifax’s triple whammy of the war, explosion, and Spanish flu immediate and real."
      
—Kit Pearson
