I’ve been thinking of a new working title for the 3rd Darko Dawson novel. This is all preliminary, of course. Working titles often end up being changed by the publisher, but I need a new way to refer to the novel to replace MEN OF THE RIG, which has fallen out of favor and which for various other reasons I want to change.
Possible titles I’ve thought of so far are those below. If you would, indicate your preferred top 3 (or 4) in decreasing order of how intriguing they are to you. Simply answer the email with your choices, e.g. #2, 1, 4 means you like #2 the best, followed by #1 etc. etc.
- Bullet at Three Points
- The Land Nearest Nowhere
- The Cape Three Points Execution*
- The Three Points Execution
- The Nowhere Execution
- Execution Nowhere
- Execution At Three Points
- The Killings At Three Points
- Two Bullets At Three Points
- Close Range At Three Points

* Cape Three Points is the Southernmost Tip of Ghana off which abundant oil wells were discovered by Tullow Oil in 2007. It is the closest land to a point in the Atlantic Ocean that is 0 latitude, 0 longitude and 0 altitude, hence its nickname “the land closest to nowhere.”
