Of Dan's Design is a genre-bending mix of hot-blooded horror, literary thought and dark humor.
An unfulfilling career and profound longing for inner peace has middle-aged insurance salesman Dan ready for change. Hallucinations and anxiety have Dan knock, knock, knocking on mental breakdown's door. A tumultuous relationship with boss Mark Sheffield leads to Dan's forced removal from Avarice Insurance LLC, and a renewed desire to fulfill his childhood dream of a lonely, selfless death.
Dan disappears into the wilds of North Shadyton, seeking freedom from the pressures of civilized society, finding the virus of humankind inescapable. His dreams are smashed by bad health, bad kids, bad cops, and a town not suited for fairy-tale endings.
A diverse, absolutely insane cast of characters weave through Dan's narrative-leaving chaos and a few bodies in their wake. Psychopaths, killers, the insignificant and misunderstood keep the path to Dan's dream critically thoughtful, colorful and hilariously wicked.
Revenge, liberation, justice. Philosophy, self-discovery and enlightenment. A story out of the ordinary for fans of Chuck Palahniuk and Mona Awad.
One-half: The Road
One-half: Natural Born Killers
One-whole: Thought-provoking trip that will heavy your heart and boil your blood.
Of Dan's Design will leave you in awe of it all.
