Bio
Daniel Pascoe was brought up on smog and boiled cabbage in London many years ago. Sent away to boarding school at 13, he dreamed of a life in the army and became a medic.

The world is waiting, weird and wonderful. Writing fiction is a form of exploration and discovery, exposing truths and falsehoods in equal measure.He lives with his wife and family on Teesside, thinking of ways to counteract youth disappointment that seems to have blighted an entire generation. He has four children whose refreshing and entrepreneurial spirits always manage to shine brightly in the gloom.

FAIR GAME FOUL PLAY
Who knows what goes on between two people in the secrecy of their own home?
Sometimes you never know what goes on within a marriage, even your own, until some catastrophe happens.
Arnold Westlake is a decent, likable bloke who plays golf. Helpful, reliable. Unsettled, bored, pent-up. Tamara is a lovely lady who bakes cakes and plays bridge. Thoughtful, kind. Frustrated, directionless. From a quiet village in North Yorkshire, a story of slow-burn domestic tension, discontent and tragedy compounded by cover‑up, and a desire for survival no matter what.
Not so much a whodunnit, more a will-they-get-away-with-it that you won’t want to put down.
