To Dare A Future: A Novel of Rage
5/5

About this ebook
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...
"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
