RECKLESS is my first novel, but I have written for TV and film before this. Like many people, I was given my first TV break by THE BILL. It used to go out three times a week, 30 mins per episode, and had a well-earned reputation of giving young writers, directors and actors a chance. I learned a great deal from working on it, then went on both to write my own shows (TRUST, THE DEBT) and other people's (SPOOKS, WALLANDER, MERLIN etc). After managing to sell a spec script to Hollywood, I worked for a while rewriting screenplays - a sort of script doctor. But this left no time for my own work, so I veered back to TV before deciding to see if I could write a novel. RECKLESS is the result. Although I started it back in 2018, a lot was written during lockdown, when it was a welcome distraction. Hope you enjoy it!
