~~SUMMARY~~
When their plane goes down in the Canadian wilderness, Finch Rhodes’s and Clay Gandy’s lives become entwined. Together they face the unforgiving elements of unfamiliar terrain in winter. With their lives at stake, Finch and Clay are forced to rely on one another to survive, and they forge a bond that lasts even after they are rescued.
Finch struggles to adjust to normal life upon returning home, hindered by seemingly harmless mishaps that soon escalate into brutal attacks. She once again comes to rely on Clay, but as the connection between them deepens, the threat against her grows.
Emma Elliot first developed a love of suspense when she was six years old. She was hiding from her cousins and sister in a closet in her grandmother's house when she discovered a passageway, though not so secret, linking to another closet. She stumbled upon a stack of worn Bobbsey Twins mysteries in that seeming labyrinth, and she spent much of her childhood there, by choice, reading mystery novels by flashlight. Her love of reading and writing grew simultaneously. Soon she was creating her own variations of the stories she read and penning her own tales. Through bouts of working as a tutor, an editor, an apple- and peach-picker, a waitress, a dog walker, a nanny, a retail associate, and a reservationist at a ski resort, writing has remained her passion.
She currently lives on the eastern seaboard and considers herself a wandering homebody. She travels often for work, which provides fodder for the imagination and plentiful hours to write her next novel while sitting in airports.

Guest Post by Emma Elliot
It has been a while since you released your first novel with TWCS, A Think, Dark Line? Why have you made us wait so long for another novel by you? Does As Darkness Gathers relate to A Think, Dark Line in any way?
Right around the release of A Thin, Dark Line, I had a couple of life changes: I moved across country, and I started a new job. Both were stressful, and I’m the sort who needs some amount of serenity in my life to be able to focus on writing. I also needed time to figure out the second book in my Dark Betrayals series. Clay Gandy was a secondary character in my first novel, and the editors loved him and requested I write his story. I hadn’t intended to write a series, and I didn’t really have a story in mind for him. A trip to Ireland in January of 2013 with my mother was the rejuvenative break my storytelling abilities needed, and the day after I returned from the trip, I sat down with a heroine and plot in mind. It took me about seven months to write and rewrite and rewrite again, and the beginning of August last year I submitted it to TWCS. The publishing process has taken about another year, but I hope you’ll find the story well worth the wait.
