I'm the author of the Daniel Sawyer action thriller series - a fast-paced, globe-trotting adventures that take readers to the far corners of the world. My titles include Getting Away With It and The Deadly Embrace. Book three in the series, The Money Trail, is due out in the Autumn of 2026.

I've also written a handful of short stories, introducing the backstories of my main characters. So far this include Pinned Down (Daniel's story) and The Hacker (Kristi's story). Asi's story, The Viking, is a work in progress, so watch this space.

A retired company director and travel writer, I spent over thirty years working around the globe — in Bangladesh, Malaysia, Italy, the USA, and beyond. Those lived experiences fuel my writing, bringing authenticity and sense of place to my writing. I hope my readers feel as if they're actually there, right beside my characters as the storylines play out.

My passion for storytelling ignited at the age of ten, when a school trip to see Macbeth in a Sheffield theatre sparked something that three decades of corporate life couldn't extinguish. 

My favourite books as a child, The Iron Man by Ted Hughes and Stig of the Dump further whetted the desire to write. When I finally stepped away from a fruitful career in telecoms and mobile apps creation, I did what I believe I was always meant to do: wrote that first novel.

I write for curious, adventurous readers - primarily men aged 18 to 100, though I deliberately craft my stories to appeal far wider. Expect strong, pivotal male and female characters who drive the plot rather than decorate it, and action that spans continents.

When I'm not writing, I love to make music, hiking and to read up on military history, particularly the human cost of conflict and how ordinary people rise to extraordinary circumstances. I also ran the popular travel blog Reluctant Backpacker before hagning up my boots to focus on my novels and the travelling itself.

I live near the Suffolk coast, an ideal, peaceful location to write.
