-----------

It's the hottest summer on record.

You'd planned to be in the south of France with your sister but your holiday has been cancelled.

So now you're stuck in London.

And then one evening you meet a man who offers to drive you to France. Go see your sister, he urges. Surprise her!

Soon you're on the road with him. But the further south you drive, the more you start to worry.

Who is this man really?

Why does he seem to know so much about you and your sister?

And most importantly, how much danger are you in?

Praise for Road Kill

No one captures the deadly foibles of the middle classes better than Sabine Durrant.

ERIN KELLY

With shades of Patricia Highsmith, Sabine Durrant is an author in her prime.

JENNIE GODFREY

There are very few thriller writers who I feel as fiercely and passionately loyal to as Sabine Durrant. Every book is a gem, polished to perfection, dark in all the right ways and riven through with so much sharp humanity, intense atmosphere and spellbindingly beautiful writing. She is, it's not an exaggeration to say, my favourite thriller writer, full stop.

LISA JEWELL

Sabine Durrant is a key talent in the UK crime scene

FINANCIAL TIMES

Road Kill is a mesmeric, fast-paced rollercoaster of a read with a killer twist

Lisa Jewell

The perfect summer thriller - completely addictive, with a gorgeous, sun-soaked atmosphere that slowly curdles from carefree adventure into something altogether more sinister - plus a twist you'll never see coming. No one does middle-class nightmares like Sabine Durrant - she is a master at creating characters you think you know, only to flip your expectations completely on their head. Original, brilliantly twisty and genuinely unsettling — I’m in awe of her. A stunning achievement.

Katherine Faulkner

A freakishly amazing story from Durrant who is the undisputed queen of twisted destination thrillers. And my favourite author of the moment

Katy Brent

Darkly compelling, sizzles with a deliciously sinister undercurrent of dread throughout. Buckle up - this is one trip you're not going to forget!

Izzy Broom

Sabine Durrant never disappoints but here she excels herself: Road Kill is a cool, clever novel without a single wasted word, and I think it's her best yet. A brilliantly twisty narrative stays one step ahead of the reader all the time. Beautifully written and deceptively simple, this is an outstanding book and one that will stay with me for a long time

Jane Casey

Smart, sharply written, and compulsively readable. Sabine Durrant’s Road Kill is a masterclass in psychological suspense. I devoured it

Lucy Clarke

Sabine Durrant can do no wrong

Clare Mackintosh

The masterclass in misdirection
