David Gaughran is a 34-year old Irish writer, living in Sweden, who spends most of his time traveling the world, collecting stories. “A Storm Hits Valparaíso” is his debut novel, a historical adventure set during Argentina’s war of independence from the Spanish Empire.

Here's the blurb:

"Catalina Flores de la Peña's tongue got her in more trouble than any other part of her body, even though there were far more likely candidates. But when a storm rolls into her sleepy port town, she finds herself embroiled with a gang of adventurers, mercenaries, and prostitutes on a journey to free South America from the Spanish Empire. A Storm Hits Valparaíso is an epic historical adventure starring two brothers torn apart by love; a slave running for his life; a disgraced British sailor seeking redemption; and José de San Martín, an Argentine general who deserts the Spanish Army to lead a bloody revolt against his former masters."

David Gaughran is also the author of the short stories “If You Go Into The Woods” and “Transfection,” as well as “Let’s Get Digital: How To Self-Publish, And Why You Should,” which is the top-rated guide to self-publishing on Amazon. His work has been featured in the Huffington Post, the Sunday Times, and the Irish Times.
