HOW FAR WOULD HE GO TO DEFEND HIS FAMILY?
When Nick Wychwood loses his wife Elise in a shocking accident, he is left to bring up their daughter Lucy on his own. Moving house gives them the fresh start that they need, where they can put tragedy behind them and forge new friendships.
But Lucy, is fragile, vulnerable, easily led. When someone offers her their shoulder, their warmth and understanding, even love, she accepts, unquestioningly. But this 'someone' is an online monster; dangerous, deceptive, manipulative - and patiently laying a deadly trap.
As Nick uncovers the hideous truth of what happened to his beloved daughter, he vows to track down the person behind the screen. And when he succeeds, a devastating reckoning awaits...
Set in the picturesque Cotswolds, Father's Day explores the power of paternal love, the evil of online trolling, and the morality of extrajudicial punishment. Father's Day; a day of vengeance.

Richard Madeley left school at 16 to be a cub reporter on his local paper. By 19 he was a deputy editor, and that same year joined BBC local radio in the newsroom. He went on to work as a reporter/presenter for Border Television, Yorkshire Television (where he covered the Peter Sutcliffe serial murders) and Granada Television, meeting fellow reporter and wife-to-be Judy Finnigan. The two went on to launch ITV's This Morning programme, and after 13 years joined Channel Four for their eponymous teatime series, which ran for eight years. Richard now works as a freelance, covering for Piers Morgan on Good Morning Britain, Michael Ball on Radio 2, and live TalkRadio programmes. He has written three Sunday Times top ten bestsellers and is currently working on his fourth novel. He and his wife have run the hugely influential Richard&Judy Book Club in association with WHSmith since 2010.
