Author Interview with Dan Clark:
If you could describe your book in one sentence what would it be?
A suspenseful thriller that hopefully, keeps the reader guessing.
Where did the inspiration for your book come from?
Always being an avid reader of thriller and crime fiction, I wanted to create my own characters with flaws and secrets of their own.
If you could recommend just one book to read, what would it be and why?
That’s a hard one! If I have to narrow it down, I would say thinner by Stephen king. I have always enjoyed the story.
Who are your favourite authors?
There are so many to choose from, but the authors I feel most inspired by are: Stephen King, Ruth Ware, C.L. Taylor,Mark Edwards and Harlan Coben.
Is writing your only job? If not, what is your other job?
Unfortunately, no, I don’t write full time. During the day, I drive lorries. Being able to write full time is my dream and hopefully, one day I will.
What are you currently working on?
I’d love to say my current work in progress is going great. but, I am easily distracted and would usually start a new story! I am trying to stay more focused and concentrate on one project at a time, haha. Hopefully my next thriller will be out this year, it’s really hard to say!

As a very passionate and reasonably talented sportsman, Nick had always wanted to use his training skills towards creating a parallel career, so in the mid 1980’s he qualified and began coaching sport professionally. After a health scare in 2003 and in search of a simpler life, he and his wife Lesley, cashed in their investments, sold their home and bought a rundown farmhouse in the rural west of Ireland – a country they had never before even visited. With little money or experience and armed only with a do-it-yourself manual, they set about renovating their new home, where they now live happily alongside a flock of chickens, two ducks and several unruly, but delightful dogs.
