Football – Crime – Art – Soundtrack… – published October 2025 – is my fourth published novel.

An ancient Daoist painting goes missing from a London gallery. Steven Vincent took a da Vinci piece twenty years previous – this time he is set up. He suspects a sophisticated Italian gang producing counterfeit art and artefacts for a wealthy clientele.

With three childhood friends he travels from London to Turin – via Marseille and Nice.

Along the way football, music, art, photography and obsession are the themes. A meeting with the Torino ultras is a highlight.

It’s like the old times – but no one is to be trusted…

An Italian Job meets On the Road.

Cheap Perfume and Dirty Diesel – published May 2025 – is a Kerouac/Potter book about a man fulfilling a childhood dream by joining a fair for three weeks. He travels around the southwest of England building relationships with the public and workers along the way – thrills and spills along the way.

The Silent River was published on 03/06/2024. It is a thriller set in London, Moscow and Cairo and is available to buy online @ Amazon. Foyles. Waterstones. WH Smith.

Having lived in the same flat behind a busy north London underground station with a Premier League football club close by for forty years – the content is always there.

Travels have taken me to India, north and west Africa, Egypt, North America, several countries and cities in Europe.

Following my football club – Oxford United – have taken me to many towns and cities around the U.K – a hundred in total.

Burroughs, Coelho and Kerouac are three of my favourite writers.

Have read Burgess. Hornby. Fleming. Kureishi. MacInnes. Miller. Rhinehart. Rowling. Salinger. Sillitoe…
