Following the trilogy's success, \u003ci\u003eSecond Life\u003c\/i\u003e (2017) launched a new saga based on the characters introduced in the first three books. The series prequel, \u003ci\u003eFive Knives\u003c\/i\u003e, came out in 2018. The Finch chronicle continues with \u003ci\u003eOpen Chains\u003c\/i\u003e (2019), \u003ci\u003eRun Time\u003c\/i\u003e (2020), and \u003ci\u003eWhite Sphere\u003c\/i\u003e (2022).

Following his birth in Montreal, Don's family moved around North America from rural Ontario to New York City to Mississippi and New Jersey. \"After years of seeking the ideal place to live,\" he says, \"I finally landed on my feet on Vancouver Island -- where I live next to the Salish Sea in the city of Victoria.\" For twenty-two years he worked at the University of Victoria where he taught creative writing and journalism and coordinated the Professional Writing Cooperative Education Program -- which he co-founded. From time to time he also freelanced as a business writer and journalist. In the fall of 2010, Don left the university so that, \"I could turn my pre-occupation with writing into a full-blown obsession.\" An Amazon bestselling author, he's also a ManyBooks.com Book-of-The-Month Award winner and a Whistler Independent Book Award finalist.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 256\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.64 x 7.81 x 5.06 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e July 01, 2025\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46944172015755,"sku":"9781036703332","price":30.3,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0670\/2579\/7259\/files\/yR6PjkOcYX9781036703332.webp?v=1779058217","url":"https:\/\/thetaletrade.com\/products\/stone-eater-a-will-finch-mystery-thriller-paperback","provider":"The Tale Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
