Read Darren's FLIGHT
Thanks everyone for making the launch of Flight so amazing!
Welcome, and thanks for taking the time to check out my website. My first novel, Flight, is finally available for purchase.
It's both an odd and exhilarating thing to write a novel. Odd to spend months and years alone at a desk imagining characters and situations, and exhilarating to hold the final product of all that invention in my hands. A book! Still though the process is not over - just beginning in fact, as you, the reader, turn to page one and begin the journey for yourselves. A journey, I hope, that will not only entertain you, but also make you see things a little differently. To those of you either reading right now or intending to, thank you. There's no greater validation than having you read my words.

"Darren Hynes' terse, disciplined prose expertly captures the penned-in desperation of the battered rural housewife with all the honest emotional urgency readers could expect from the most seasoned of our nation's novelists. Flight is an exceptional debut novel."
Joel Thomas Hynes, author of Right Away Monday.
Review from: The Telegram. St. John’s, Newfoundland.
This volume is a gripping read, literally a page-turner from start to finish. The stakes are high, and the situation both familiar and dire.
"Flight" is about a woman attempting to take flight, courtesy of a cache of hidden funds and plane tickets, so carefully bought and long concealed. With luck, she is coming to the end of a long deception, one that involves her family, her friends and perhaps even herself.
The domestic details are apt, real.
