He currently owns and runs 2 very successful businesses.  A recent change of direction means that he is now able to spend more time at his desk not only writing new books but also revisiting and reworking manuscripts previously written and discarded.
Dominic’s inspiration for writing came from the need to build characters and form the story form a jigsaw of ideas and an interest in the spirit and supernatural world.

All of this brings with it a vast wealth of knowledge and experience of the human condition.

Description

<p>In 1066, the rivalry between two brothers brought England to its knees. When Duke William of Normandy landed at Pevensey on September 28, 1066, no one was there to resist him. King Harold Godwineson was in the north, fighting his brother Tostig and a fierce Viking invasion. How could this have happened? Why would Tostig turn traitor to wreak revenge on his brother?<br />The Sons of Godwine were not always enemies. It took a massive Northumbrian uprising to tear them apart, making Tostig an exile and Harold his sworn enemy. And when 1066 came to an end, all the Godwinesons were dead except one: Wulfnoth, hostage in Normandy. For two generations, Godwine and his sons were a mighty force, but their power faded away as the Anglo-Saxon era came to a close.</p>
