    Hi all,

    I have just completed my first novel A STORM HITS VALPARAISO.

    In 1822, after twelve years of brutal war, Spain is on the verge of losing her Empire. The two greatest figures in South American history, José de San Martín and Simón Bolívar, meet for the first and last time to discuss the conclusion of the conflict. They speak alone, and no historical record is made of their meeting, where San Martín resigns to become an anonymous farmer in France. This tale of life, love and loss follows San Martín and his rag-tag army of Indians, freed slaves and ex-convicts until the dramatic meeting with Bolivar. For two hundred years San Martín's motives for stepping aside have remained a mystery. Until now.

    This is my first novel, written and researched over two years in Peru and Argentina, and you can read the first chapter online at www.davidgaughran.com

    I hope you enjoy it and I would love to hear what you think.

    Dave
