About

I'm a crime writer who works in the criminal justice system.

My book is a fast paced page-turner, based in reality.

I come from a writing background, the most famous writer being my cousin 'Vita Sackville-West'. Vita was a well respected writer and society character. She also had a long and public 'liaison' with Virginia Wolf.

My father, 'David Newman' is the author of 'The Forgotten Path', the true story of his crossing of the Sahara Desert in a car! He was also the film producer who produced Judi Dench's first film, 'He Who Rides A Tiger'

I have two grown up children, Mark and Gemma, and two grown up foster children, Charley and Jonathan.

Off topic, but for those of you interested in politics, my great grandfather, Sir Gerald Strickland, was, among other things, the Prime Minister of Malta.

I continue to work, based in a Magistrate's Court as a Probation Court Duty Officer.

Story Behind The Book

Mickey has been released from prison following a short sentence. He is homeless and broke and has known little else since he was sixteen. Forced to stay with a stranger, or sleep on the streets, Mickey is drawn into a drama which again threatens his liberty. 'Revolving Door' is a fictional account of one man's struggle to stay out of prison. It takes the reader on a fast-paced switchback ride between the present day and his childhood. In writing this book I've tried to highlight the difficulties faced by offenders on their release from prison, particularly when they've come from a challenging background.
