The Face of My Killer [PREORDER OCTOBER 2026]
$57.00 AUD
A breakup followed by a blackout.
After his boyfriend dumped him and a night of terror, Theo left England without looking back. He tries to ignore the nightmares that have plagued him for twelve years, pushing everything down, pretending he’s okay. All he wants is a quiet life in his little village on the Isle of Skye.
But then the last person he would have expected turns up to his cousin’s wedding. Bailey is suddenly back in his life, acting as though he doesn’t remember the night that left a permanent scar on Theo.
~
Theo is not the same boy Bailey fell in love with. He’s full of anger and resentment that seems to have come from nowhere. However much he tries, Bailey can’t remember the night Theo ran away. Now that they’re stuck in close proximity for a month, Bailey pushes Theo to tell him what happened. But when Theo finally fills in the gaps, Bailey’s whole world shatters.

The preorder sales will open and run for one month. Once the month has lapsed and sales closed, we will then reach out to our manufacturers and partners, and arrange all the many, many components of the collaboration. Each manufacturer will have a different delivery date, and we will keep everyone updated on the process on our Shipping Page. We anticipate delivery 16 weeks post the closure of the preorders.
Yes, prior to preorder closure you can. Once the preorders have closed, those funds have been committed to manufacturing and we will not be able to offer a refund.

We will continue to keep you up to date on the shipping and progress page which will be updated with any notifications that may extend out timeframes.
ABOUT US
Your favourite bookstores, favourite bookstore
Launching in June 2024, Swoon Bookstore started life as a retail indie bookstore with a focus on Queer titles and Australian authors. We created a steady community and began to dabble in bespoke pop up events and small-run special editions to compliment them. The pivotal moment in the next phase of the Swoon Story began with the inception of our first, fully featured Special Edition Book Box, Hamartia by Scarlett Drake, which was released April 2025.
