The Psalm series takes individual psalms as starting points for historical fiction. The Hunter and the Valley of Death, By the Waters of Babylon, and Deep Calling Deep were all published in 2018 and each draws on a well-known psalm to frame its story.
Rather than retelling the psalms literally, Towriss builds fictional narratives around the themes and imagery found in each one. The result is a set of stories that work both as standalone historical fiction and as reflections on the biblical text.
