My latest book, 'The Madrid Connection', was published in November 2025—'a fast, gripping, darkly funny page-turner'. It is a sequel to 'The Barcelona Connection', but also a standalone crime-thriller with black comedy.
These are the first two books in a planned series about an art detective called Benjamin Blake, with the first book already in development for the screen. As an author, journalist, occasional radio guest and comedy host, I am often working on several projects at the same time, but am always happy to hear from anyone who'd like to get in touch.
My nonfiction travel memoir, 'A Load of Bull—An Englishman's Adventures in Madrid', tells the story of being sent to Madrid in the late eighties for six weeks to help launch Spanish Vogue, but staying for a decade and running the company. I am also planning a sequel based on my time living and working in Barcelona since 2007.
On Substack, I write a weekly blog-newsletter—'Letter from Spain'—about my research for 'The Connections' series, their development for the screen, as well as about living, working and writing in Spain in general.
