Q – Sorry, Gil who?

My name is Gil Waugh and I am back with a vengeance after a 25 year hiatus. Some of you will remember my first two novels Mind Surfing and Evening Song from the late 1990s. Just as they were gaining momentum, life intervened, and my novel writing projects were stopped and limited to non-fiction, poetry and lyrics—until now! The Piper’s Lullaby is ready and set to be published in eight weeks in mid July and I am well into writing the first draft of The Ploughman’s House, the fourth in the Sandalwood Investigation Agency series. It has a working release date of Spring/Summer 2026 and while in Portugal I was even able to start the framework for the fifth book in the series – I know what I want to call it too…but that’ll wait for now.

Stay tuned…lots more news coming soon!
