My New Psychological Thriller ROAD JOY Is Out Now
“One night behind the wheel can change everything.”
Bruce is eighteen, angry, and trapped – caring for a disabled father and a younger sister while his own life idles in neutral.
When he steals his father’s Range Rover for a midnight escape, it isn’t just rebellion.
It’s freedom.
It’s power.
And after a moment of horror on a lonely road, Bruce discovers something worse than guilt – he enjoyed it.
Now the thrill of joyriding turns into something darker, and every mile he drives pulls him deeper into a world of violence, lies, and self-destruction.
How far will he go before he realises he can’t turn back?
