We all have black thoughts. It's just some of us act on them.
A van driver with abduction and murder on his mind.
An eleven-year-old girl snatched on her way home from ballet.
A tortured reporter, happy to use her death and the terrifying reign of a child killer to help make his name…
Includes a FREE 3,500 crime short story, Camaraderie.
"Don't let the rather bland title put you off – this second novel by Dave Franklin is an impressive pacey read, spiced with ethical dilemmas as well as his earthy dialogue and humour." – Sunday Times
"Franklin's first novel, Looking for Sarah Jane Smith, introduced his unique brand of bitter humour as he journeyed out of Wales into Aussie territory. In this new book, Franklin chooses to return to familiar territory, setting the novel in Portsmouth, on England's south coast. His raw-edged honesty and earthy humour combine to make a compelling portrayal of one man's undoing against a backdrop of murder, brutality and desperate love. It is a gritty and vicious novel with an unredeemable hero." – Post Newspapers
Length: 62,000 words.
*** R-rated for violence and bad language ***
About The Author
Dave Franklin has written eight novels, none of which should be read to small children at bedtime. In fact, his caustic, profanity-filled prose, which often centres on dysfunctional loners, should be approached with caution. Here's a handy guide to his full-length work:
DARK COMEDY - Looking For Sarah Jane Smith, Manic Streets of Perth & English Toss on Planet Andong. A bargain-priced anthology of these three titles - Evil Arse Soup - is also available.
HORROR / SUPERNATURAL / DARK FANTASY - Straitjacket Blues 1-3 & The Goodreads Killer: The Trilogy. A bargain-priced anthology of these titles - Begin The Madness - is also available.
CRIME / PSYCHOLOGICAL - To Dare A Future & Girls Like Funny Boys. A bargain-priced anthology of these titles - Blundering Blokes - is also available. Riders on the Storm and other Killer Songs.
EROTICA / HUMOROUS - Bawdy Blokes: Three Porno Funnies.
