  • A gruesome delight! Daniel Cole's thriller RAGDOLL, in which gritty detective William "Wolf" Fawkes comes upon a single corpse stitched together out of six bodies, had me flipping pages furiously. It's an impressive debut, dark, propulsive, and surprisingly funny.

    Gregg Hurwitz, bestselling author of ORPHAN X

  • Six corpses in one - and that's just the beginning! Don't expect any let-up in this chilling ride-along with a serial killer more devious and warped than you could ever imagine.

    David Jackson, Number One bestselling author

  • Gruesome, twisty and wildly addictive...I couldn't put RAGDOLL down.

    Lisa Hall, author of TELL ME NO LIES

  • A smorgasbord of flawed characters, an unrelenting pace and a perfect balance of gore and wit. RAGDOLL is a corker of a debut and Cole is sure to be a brilliant and accomplished new voice for crime readers to devour.

    Ali Land, author of GOOD ME, BAD ME

  • RAGDOLL is a fiendishly inventive serial killer mystery wrapped around a compelling new protagonist. I can't wait to see what Daniel Cole does next.

    Jill Mansell, author of MEET ME AT BEACHCOMBER BAY
