Manhattan Down by Michael Cordy. Every now and again a book that’s not the style you’d normally read, grips you. This book captivated me and it was such good fun. The storyline feels Hollywood film in the making and Cordy nails the pace, the characters and plot 9/10 #amreading 📚

Very luck to have been invited to Penguin’s 90th birthday party at the Design Museum on Thursday. Full of famous authors. Kept seeing familiar faces and then realising I didn’t know them. Yet. Very inspiring.

Looking forward to Bloody Scotland in September with so many good events including Michael Cordy & #ManhattanDown pub by Transworld Books speaking with Harry Whitelaw & Eve Smith on writing about the climate crisis in fiction. For tkts see the link here tinyurl.com/37b673pe

A subject very close to my heart from fellow Transworld Books author Michael Cordy, who also wrote the fantastic The Miracle Strain (later retitled The Messiah Code) all the way back in 1997. His new one looks fantastic and the wonderful folks at PRH have even sent me an ARC 🙌

Really? Do you know something I don’t?

Manhattan Down was rated one of the best thrillers of 2025 so far in last Friday’s Times. thetimes.com/article/1a1024… #manhattandown #thrillers

Delighted to be participating in the fabulous ChilternKills crime writing festival on Sat 4th October 2025 at Gerrards Cross. It would be great to see you there. Tickets and timetable available at chilternkills.com #manhattandown

Just a week to go until @bloodyscotland where I'll be talking all things climate, chaos & corruption with Harry Whitehead & Michael Cordy on Friday at the Holy Trinity Church at 3.30. It's a brilliant programme, so if you haven't already, get booking! ⬇️ bit.ly/3TlM8RL

What a fascinating talk from Eve Smith, Michael Cordy and #HarryWhitehead at Bloody Scotland. It's always grounding to be reminded that each author has their own distinct background, style, approach, and vision. And that's what makes all us scribblers unique.

Looking forward to putting my head on the block at my first ChilternKills crime writing festival at Gerard’s Cross on Oct 4th with the estimable Jeremy Vine | Here, on Tiktok, Insta & Facebook S.J. Fleet and Tony Kent . Come and see famous authors - and me. Tickets at ChilternKills.com.
