How you see DANNY will depend very much on what you bring to it. The romantic will be smothered by the obsessive love at its core. The cynic will sink into the black pessimism at its heart. The licentious will overdose on its salacious sex. The socially concerned will find a searing portrait of familial dysfunction. The depraved will wallow in its excess. The intellectual will find philosophy, while the thrill seeker need seek no more.

We all know the story - the woman who is so beautiful no man can resist. Well DANNY takes this idea and runs to a whole new place with it. For the first time you don't doubt for an instant someone's power to captivate and corrupt. Everybody falls in love with Danny.

Is he a changeling? A helpless satyr? A Machiavellian liar? Every one of his family believes something different of him. But it doesn't stop the world beating a path to his door. As murder piles on murder, secrets come crawling thick and fast out the rotten fabric of their lives as they move towards self-destruct... with Danny leading the dance.

But while it is indisputably a love story, it is also a crime story, a mystery, a psychological thriller, a kinky psychodrama, a serious study of dysfunction and the power dynamics of the family. It is even a family saga - only it's the raunchy hardcore version you've never seen before.

Men traditionally seduce by power, wealth, coercion. Danny seduces by passivity, availability, invitation. He lies in wait, like a vampire, a spider in its web, and drains everyone dry without even breaking sweat. There is a lot of supernatural allusion in this book, and it is all real.

Trapped in a nightmare of their own making, this is a family suffocating under the weight of its own black secrets. Lust and ungovernable passions run through it, decimating it like a fever. It is a visceral and obsessive tale of torn hearts bleeding vengeance through every pore - and blithely forgetting that the man who plans revenge should dig two graves. It exceeds all bounds of taste and decorum. It's not a novel, it's an emotional rollercoaster ride through the maelstrom, a king-sized chocolate bar of a book - it should be nibbled on and savoured, but you won't be able to help bolting it all down at once.

Below you will find a sample chapter from DANNY 1, a 'nibble' big enough to give you the flavour, and get you well and truly addicted. And If you want any more you know where to find us...
