Darren Broderick – Hero or Villain of Captor Captive
Hi Everyone!
I’m back with another Captor Captive character spotlight. Now that we’ve had an insight into Ellie’s life in my previous post, it’s time to meet the hero, or villain, of the disturbing psychological suspense thriller 'Captor Captive' - Darren Broderick. Enjoy!
Full Name: Darren James Broderick
Age: Late 20’s
Place of Birth: Perth, Western Australia
Father: James Broderick owns a car repair centre in Perth, Australia. He’s slightly dishonest when declaring his income and his favourite saying is, “What they don’t know won’t hurt them.” He wanted Darren to take over the business, but Darren took off instead.
Mother: Susan Broderick was a bank clerk until recently, when she was sacked for slipping a bit of cash into her handbag. She is currently in charge of her husband’s business accounts.
Siblings: Darren has an older brother, Jason, and a younger sister, Amanda, who is a model at a small modelling agency in Sydney.
Appearance: Darren is very attractive, with brown, collar-length hair and brown eyes. He is tall and athletic, and likes to work out. He’s often seen wearing his black leather biker jacket, and a pair of blue-black jeans.
Home: Darren resides in a studio apartment in Oxford, England, for now, until he gets kicked out for rent arrears. He has a beer fridge, and a bed, and that’s about it, unless you count his expensive car, and diver’s watch. He’s a regular visitor to the local pawn shop.
Education: Darren attended veterinary college in Western Australia after leaving school, but dropped out of university after the first year. There appeared to be no end to his gap year…
Visa: Darren escaped to Britain with an ancestry visa after getting his best mate’s girlfriend pregnant. His story changes often, but this is the real reason, and don’t let him tell you otherwise!
Work: Darren has had a variety of jobs, both in Australia and in the UK. He drifts from one to another, never settling for long. No one seems able to pin him down.
Hobbies and Interests: Diving, rally driving, motorbikes, playing cricket, and gambling.
Friends: Darren has a group of Aussie mates who are all trying to get back home to Oz for a variety of reasons. His friend, Brett Hayes, is a property developer of undisclosed habits, who is looking to get rich quick before he returns to Australia for good.
Romances: Darren’s lost count of his romantic encounters and tends to brag, so it’s hard to obtain a true figure. Like his jobs, he doesn’t stay for long, and his friends are not expecting him to settle down anytime soon. He’s had his eye on one particular girl, but she’s holding him at bay – and who can blame her?
Worst Fears: None in particular. Darren doesn’t let on that he’s scared of anything!
I hope you’ve enjoyed meeting Darren. Do you think he’s a hero, or a villain? Is there anything else you’d love to know about Darren, if he’ll tell us? Which part of the book did you like the best? Which character was your favourite? Maybe you’d like to ask me about the writing process! I’d love to hear from you. Leave me a comment and I’ll check back here soon.
All the best,
L.J. Kane
