Coming Soon: The Scorpion Archipelago by David Palin
We’re excited to be sharing the upcoming UK Bookstagram tour for The Scorpion Archipelago by David Palin, running from 29th January to 7th February with Love Books Tours.
Blending psychological tension with adventure and ancient mystery, this dark and atmospheric thriller promises high stakes, buried secrets, and unsettling discoveries. Across the tour dates, our Bookstagram hosts will be sharing their reviews and creative posts on Instagram.
📖 About the Book
Some secrets should stay buried. Some destinations should never be explored.
When a legendary oceanographer announces one final expedition, his archaeologist daughter Jane Sutch joins him on a journey shrouded in secrecy. Alongside a celebrated photographer and Jane’s reckless husband — whose motives are far from pure — the team set off for a remote, unmapped archipelago unknown to the modern world.
What they uncover is far more than a forgotten civilisation. A trap laid centuries ago is triggered, ancient evils begin to stir, and history starts to repeat itself. At the heart of the archipelago lie buried truths — both within the island and within the explorers themselves — truths that were never meant to resurface.
The Scorpion Archipelago is a haunting exploration of obsession, belief, and the cost of uncovering the truth.
