Itโ€™s been a while since I've posted anything anywhere, but I didn't want to let any more time go by without thanking everyone for all your kind messages of support over the last year and a half.

I've learned firsthand how effective a smear campaign can be, so to be clear:

The allegations against me are completely and simply untrue. There are emails, text messages and video evidence that flatly contradict them.

These allegations, especially the really salacious ones, have been spread and amplified by people who seemed a lot more interested in outrage and getting clicks on headlines rather than whether things had actually happened or not. (They didn't.)

(They didn't.)

One thing that's kept me going through all this madness is the conviction that the truth would, eventually, come out. I expected that when the allegations were first made there would be journalism, and that the journalism would take the (mountains of) evidence into account, and was astonished to see how much of the reporting was simply an echo chamber, and how the actual evidence was dismissed or ignored.

I was a journalist once, and I have enormous respect for journalists, so I've been hugely heartened by the meticulous fact and evidence-based investigative writing of one particular journalist, whom some of you recently brought to my attention, who writes under the name of TechnoPathology.

Iโ€™ve had no contact with TechnoPathology. But Iโ€™d like to thank them personally for actually looking at the evidence and reporting what they found, which is not what anyone else had done.

If you are curious about what they've uncovered so far, the link in this post takes you to really good investigative reporting.

It's been a strange, turbulent and occasionally nightmarish year and a half, but I took my own advice (when things get tough, make good art) and once I was done with making television I went back to doing something else I love even more: writing.

I thought it was going to be a fairly short project when I began it, but it's looking like it's going to be the biggest thing I've done since American Gods. It's already much longer than The Ocean at the End of the Lane, and it's barely finished wiping its boots and hanging up its coat.

And I spend half of every month being a full-time Dad, and that remains the best bit of my life.

It's a rough time for the world. I look at what's happening on the home front and internationally, and I worry; and I am still convinced there are more good people out there than the other kind.

Thank you again to so many of you for your belief in my innocence and your support for my work.

It has meant the world to me.

The year is 1816. Napoleon has fallen. And summer never came.

In a world of shifting empires, cutthroat international intrigues, and treacherous seas, Conall Maguireโ€”an evicted Irish tenant farmer with a haunted pastโ€”is thrust into a deadly conspiracy reaching from the wind-bitten wilds of Donegal to the exotic splendor of Algiers, the Greek Isles, and deep into the heart of the Ottoman Empire.

Kidnappings spark peril, loyalties are tested, and forbidden romances are kindled. Maguireโ€™s only hope is to unravel a tangled web of murder, human trafficking, and dark alliances before the slave market forever swallows the people he loves.

From the rugged wilderness of Northwest Ireland to the crimson-tinged shores of the Mediterranean, his fight for justice cuts deeper than any blade.

A sweeping tale of betrayal, survival, and vengeance, Black is the Sea at Night will leave you breathless to the last page.
