Killing Daniel

A murder mystery and an unconventional love story, Killing Daniel will grip fans of literary fiction and fast-paced thrillers.

In Manchester Fleur is drifting through life haunted by her murdered boyfriend Daniel. In Japan Chinatsu is trying to escape a passionless marriage to Yugi Hamogoshi, a man with a secret who won't let her go. Fleur and Chinatsu used to be schoolfriends. Fleur and Chinatsu had a bond. Fleur and Chinatsu had dreams. This is the story of what happens before they can be together again. A cross-cultural thriller like no other, Sarah Dobbs' KILLING DANIEL exposes the secret lives of contrasting people with unflinching insight and lyrical prose.

'A very dark and frightening novel, told in short chapters and brief sentences, that pass like the shivers of bad dreams' — MAX DUNBAR 3:AM MAGAZINE
