When danger comes knocking, his job is to keep it out.

"An action-packed roller coaster of a read that will leave you breathless and begging for more."

Meet Danny Norton. He runs the door at Midnight's, the hottest nightspot around. Danny's job is to keep clubbers safe from those that would harm them. Right now they include a vicious serial killer snatching clubbers off the streets, and a Russian crime boss who wants to use the club to grow his operation, but first needs to get rid of Danny and replace him with someone more, ‘amenable’ .

When the killer starts targeting Midnight's, and the Russian's scheming starts bearing fruit, Danny has no choice but to fight back using methods he knows could risk all he has built up - his business, his team, his reputation. Worse, it could ruin his chances with Vicki, the club’s beautiful VIP hostess. Way out of his league, but right now in sore need of someone she can depend on, Danny would love it to be him, if only he was brave enough to apply for the job.

As the violence escalates and the killer stalks ever closer, the pressures on Danny force him to call on all his reserves of street know-how, determination and guts in order to save himself and everything he holds dear - especially the life of the woman he loves.

A gripping and authentic account of life, 'on the door', and the dangers door staff the world over face, Midnight's Door delves into a world clubbers never get to see - and should never want to see.
