Daniel Rehm
The Troll Hunters, release date January 6, 2024
Daniel's latest work is a timely thriller that keeps readers
entertained from cover to cover.
Something had to be done. The specter of incorrigible keyboard anonymity had become a virus.
Online trolls were sapping the world of basic human courtesy, and their sentiment was spilling over into society at large.
Enter the cure, Daniel Navarro, a man who knew a little something about bullies. It was thanks to them he was destined to spend the rest of his life in a wheelchair.
His new company, The Troll Hunters - with the aid of his best friend and crack programmer Tyler Hansen - was poised to rid the world of the scourge.
What they didn’t know, was the government, a former hunter of men, and his new boss Baron Samedi - voodoo god of death - had other far more nefarious plans for them, their company, and nearly every person who has ever touched a screen, including the most famous political troll of all time.
Let Flowers Be Flowers, published in 2022, is so frightening the author has warned readers to "get some tape to hold your head together!"
An estranged family preparing for the annual Wisconsin gun deer hunt carries on completely unaware of how their lives were about to change forever. Motivated by greed and jealousy, eldest brother Mason Owens hatches a nefarious plan. He nearly thought of everything except the intrusion of an unknown hunter with stark raving blue eyes. When the dust settles, an historic scene sends shockwaves across the country and provides fuel for campfire stories for generations to come.
Justice, as fleeting as the search for one’s own self and twice as hard to attain. The hunter with blue eyes embarks on such a journey while punishing those he deems unworthy to enjoy the gifts of the wild. His path of discovery eventually takes him to the hidden backwoods home of Darlene Hatchka, high in the boreal forest of Northeast Minnesota. Strangely she knows who he is, and why he came to find her.
Game Warden Ross Parent, playing a hunch, determined to serve said justice becomes a wedge of unwitting cheese in a deadly game of wilderness cat and mouse. The terrorizing chain of events that follows pits Ross alone against The Hunter, a mastermind unfettered by the elements, darkness or fear. What they find in themselves lives in all men, but only dies in most.
“Rehm’s novel feels like a collection of three novellas. It first introduces a dispassionate boy who learns to take lives, shifts perspective to Mason’s hunting party, and then zeroes in on Ross’ investigation. The Hunter’s opening origin is effectively disturbing, and his terrifying presence pervades the novel.” – Kirkus Reviews
Daniel's 2021 publication, The Adventures of Philippine Maximine, PI, is a modern equivalent of the old timey radio shows that captivated a generation.
