#GeoffreyDouglas, #LoveInADarkPlace, #HistoricalNovel, #DarkRomance, #CrimeAndLove, #StorycomicPresents, #MemoryAndRegret, #AtlanticCity, #FirstFiction, #MoralComplexity In this episode of Storycomic Presents, I sit down with acclaimed journalist‑author Geoffrey Douglas to talk about his debut novel Love in a Dark Place. This powerful historical novel weaves a decades‑long, troubled romance between Sarah, a woman with a wounded past, and Harry Hopper, a reporter turned professor haunted by regret. From the gritty streets of 1980s Atlantic City, with its mob ties, booms and busts, to the quiet, haunting reflections of today, Geoffrey lays bare what love means when confronted by decay, time, and moral compromise. We dig into how his reporting background informed his fiction, how he builds character in shades of gray, and what he hopes readers take away about memory, justice, and redemption. If you like dark mysteries, complex relationships, and stories that linger long after the final page, you’ll want to tune in. The Title sequence was designed and created by Morgan Quaid.
