Description
'My favourite thriller writer, full stop' LISA JEWELL
'An author in her prime' JENNIE GODFREY
-----------
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?
-------

Reviews / Votes
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 *More details

Person
Road Kill is Sabine Durrant's eighth work of dark psychological suspense. Her previous thrillers include Dead Heat, Lie with Me, which was a Sunday Times Top 10 bestseller, and Sun Damage, which is currently in development with Bad Wolf and Disney.
Before becoming a full-time novelist, Sabine Durrant worked in editorial at the Independent, the Sunday Times and the Guardian, where she also wrote the weekly 'Sabine Durrant' interview. She is the author of two works of general fiction, including the bestselling Having it and Eating it, and two Connie Pickles novels for young adults. Her essay 'At Sea', for the collection Truth or Dare, was a personal investigation into the life and death of her father, a pilot in the Fleet Air Arm, who disappeared off the Dorset coast a few months after she was born.
Sabine Durrant lives in South London with her husband, three adult children, one dog and two cats.
