Thrills abound in Marcelle Perks’s breathtaking debut – out now!

In Night Driver a woman who is terrified of driving is pitted against a truck-driving serial killer…

Heavily pregnant Frannie is facing a crisis. An English woman living in Germany, her marriage is failing and she feels like a fish out of water in a foreign country. To build a sense of independence, she learns to drive but is a very nervous driver. To ease her pregnancy induced insomnia, she takes to the roads in the early hours, just to gain experience on the eerily empty streets.

But when she encounters a Polish motorcyclist looking for his missing sister, she becomes sucked into a terrifying world of shady nightclubs, autobahn prostitutes and organ trafficking. When she crosses serial-killing truck driver Stiglegger, there’s no turning back. 

A most unlikely heroine, this nervous Night Driver must stay one step ahead of her pursuer on the darkest of roads in order to survive.
