Former lawyer, technology reseller, marketing consultant, sales coach and now writer; crafting thrillers, specifically technothrillers with a side of sci-fi inside complex plots that are inhabited by grey characters - even the good guys!

When I sit down to write a book, I have three non negotiable rules:

1. It needs to concern a current or recent real world issue that I can deeply research (I love research!) and weave my fictional story into. Hopefully, so tightly that you struggle to spot where one stops and the other starts.

2. It has to have a complex plot, full of twists and turns that’ll leave you guessing right until the end.

3. It must contain grey characters, even the good guys. This makes sense to me. Firstly as a reader I hate stereotypical/one dimensional characters and secondly, grey is real-life, right?

I live in Leeds, UK with the love of my life and our two daughters. It rains a lot in Leeds but that works out well for me - loads of time for research and of course writing!

“The international novel is a page-turner with bigger-than-life heroes and villains, rousing action, aerospace history, a built-in Icelandic travelogue, captivating SF concepts, and joyous storytelling.”
