Loosely based on author Jay Malinowski’s family’s historical roots in Europe and on the east coast of Canada, Skulls & Bones takes the reader on a voyage through the eyes of the seafaring soul searcher, Martel, his granddaughter, Kit, and an inquisitive spectator, Ana, who lives on Spain’s Dead Coast. The novella is the companion to Martel, a concept album comprised of eighteen songs written in the spirit of Martel, that has been released by Jay Malinowski & The Deadcoast. Skulls & Bones brings together all three of Malinowski’s artistic disciplines, and includes original ink sketches and songs that are inspired by the content of the chapter.

The Great Fog is the second chapter in the Skulls & Bones saga.

Special enhanced edition includes video content.
