Daniel Cole worked as a paramedic before turning to crime fiction. His debut novel Ragdoll was published in 2017 and quickly became a bestseller in multiple countries. The book introduces Detective William Fawkes and his partner Emily Baxter as they investigate a killer who has assembled a body from six different victims.
The Fawkes and Baxter series continued with Hangman, Endgame, and Wolves, all published within a two-year span. Cole has also written standalone thrillers including Mimic and Jackdaw, which move away from the London setting but keep his focus on dark, tightly plotted crime stories.
