The startling new thriller from the author of the Lanarkshire Strays series.

A dead wife. Your only child. A world in need. How much would it take?

In a world where few fertile men remain and sperm is the most valuable commodity on the planet, is blood really thicker than water?

The Man Who Sold His Son is a dark look into the future and an uncompromising glimpse at what being a family really means.

The Lanarkshire Strays Series connects characters and stories from Lanarkshire. All books are standalone stories.

Praise for The Man Who Sold His Son:

“I hate Mark Wilson. I hate his stupid face and I hate his stupid bald head. Most of all, I hate that he manages to turn around my opinions of the genres he chooses to write with aplomb every single time.” – Ryan Bracha, author of Paul Carter is a Dead Man and Twelve Mad Men.

“An intelligent piece that beckons the reader to dig in deep and utilize part of their mind that the average books of late do not.” – Craig Furchtenicht, author of Dimebag Bandits and Night Speed Zero.

“Well written, compelling and pacy, this is a worthy addition to Wilson’s burgeoning portfolio.” –

Keith Nixon, author of The Fix and The Eagle’s Shadow.

“Another triumph for Mark Wilson who refuses to be bound by genre or expectations. The Man Who Sold His Son is a social commentary, a love story, a father/son story, and a feminist novel obtained by bringing forth very strong female characters.” Colette Brown, author of Weegie Tarot.

What the Readers Think:

“The plot is great, I had no idea where the story was going to take me and as a result it totally held my interest throughout the whole book and what an ending!”

“This a well a thought out book and it shows on every page, the plot shows a frighteningly realistic glimpse into what the future of science could hold and grasps you from the first page. What makes it so unique is the very down to earth, warm real characters.”

“I loved the strong women characters. Mark has a great way of making his characters real and I get wrapped up in them, flaws and all. I was expecting a different ending, but that's the good thing about Marks writing, no two books are the same.”

“I didn't know what to expect but this book was so emotional that I could not put it down. There was a constant knot in my stomach from the mixture of emotions.....love, hate, happiness, anger.”
