Popular culture has a selective memory when it comes to the significance of historical events. But telling lesser-remembered stories with fictional protagonists can bring them alive again.
It's that rediscovery of patterns and connections, often hidden in plain sight, which has been the inspiration for my writing. I hope you enjoy it.

Brussels 1969: Oskar Lenkeit is a fish out of water at the EEC.
He's about to find out how far. Echoes from the past are threatening to disturb the three-year-old truce between France and Germany over the direction of the EEC. At the request of some unlikely sponsors, Lenkeit takes on an Internal Affairs investigation intended to restore the peace, but ends up with a foot on either side of a widening rift.
With corruption at the pinnacle of European society, can the project survive and will France and Germany finally set aside old differences, or will their countries' ghosts bring it down?
Written for fans of Philip Kerr, Len Deighton, Robert Harris and John Le Carré, who are looking for a European Union origins story of the same genre and set in a similar era.
'A very intriguing and thought provoking read... that grabs you, makes you stop and think and twists and turns until the end. This is one of those books that leaves you wanting to read the next adventure.' - Roy
'The story is well paced and a balanced mixture of suspense and political intrigue; a real page turner. I would thoroughly recommend this novel.' - Lesley
