a TV journalist who travelled the world, making investigative documentaries for
the BBC’s Panorama, ITV’s World In Action and Channel 4’s Dispatches.
His debut crime thriller, Deadly Protocol, was published in September to lavish
praise from fellow crime authors – far greater than he dared to hope! It's the
ultimate medical conspiracy: a scientist working on medicine's Holy Grail - a
cure for cancer - is brutally murdered. Who killed him and why?
Felix Francis took
over writing the ‘Dick Francis Novels’ from his father. He has
recently finished Dark Horse, which will be published in September
2025. It will be his nineteenth crime novel. Felix lives in Northants
with his wife, Debbie, and two dogs. A keen cricket supporter, he is a member
of MCC and the Lord’s Taverners, as well as of the Crime Writers Association,
the International Thriller Writers, the Detection Club and The Garrick.
Antony Johnston is one of the most versatile writers of the
modern era, with a body of work spanning books, film, graphic novels,
videogames, and non-fiction. An award-winning author and New York Times
bestseller, his creations include Atomic Blonde, The Dog Sitter Detective, the
Brigitte Sharp thrillers, and many more. In 2025 his interactive crime novel
Can You Solve the Murder? will be published by Transworld.
Zoë Sharp
spent her childhood living aboard a catamaran on the northwest coast of
England. She opted out of mainstream education at twelve, and wrote her first
novel at fifteen. She began writing crime thriller fiction after receiving
death threats in the course of her work as a photojournalist, and has been
nominated for numerous awards. Her latest series has an ex-copper and an ex-con
artist investigating police corruption and a possible miscarriage of justice.
