Alongside his speculative fiction, Ryan is also developing a crime novel.
The Calendar Killer is methodical. Patient. He watches his victims for months before they ever know he exists, learning their routines, their vulnerabilities, the private version of themselves they keep for rooms where they think they’re alone. When he’s ready, he moves. When he’s done, he stays.
Nobody has come close to catching him in three years.
DCI David Kingsley intends to be the one who does.
But the dates mean something he can’t yet name. The victims share a quality he recognises without being able to say how. And the closer the investigation gets, the more David finds himself unsettled by it — not in the way a case unsettles you, but in a deeper, older way he has no language for.
Something about this one is different.
A Serial Situation is a psychological thriller about obsession, grief, and the cost of being truly known.
