Thought I should announce that my fourth novel, 'An Honest Deceit', is now available for pre-order on Amazon  here .  It's published in the UK, Europe, US and Japan on 20th October 2016.  Advance quotes - 'A book of outstanding quality. The beauty of this book resides in his actuality, and in the way the author eases the reader into it by choosing to tell the story directly from Ben’s perspective.

'Exposing Cover-Ups'- one-off discussion at The Lit and Phil, Newcastle on 11/12/15

I'm excited to be chairing a one-off event in which two very influential whistle-blowers discuss their experiences. Dr. David Drew was an NHS paediatrician who made the headlines after being sacked having raised concerns about the care of children at his hospital. Paul Moore, author of recent bestseller ‘Crash Bank Wallop’, was Head of Group Regulatory Risk at the Halifax Bank Of Scotland who was sacked after uncovering mis-selling and unfair sales tactics at the bank. Both their stories have hit the headlines and become subject of huge media discussion in recent times on the BBC, Radio 2, Sky News and more. In this interactive event both will discuss their stories and engage in interactive discussions to shed new light on how we can expose the kind of cover-ups that affected them. As the editor of Paul's book I'm looking forward to discussing this issue in some detail.  Advance tickets recommended-  https://www.eventbrite.com/e/exposing-cover-ups-discussion-with...
