edit data

Stephen writes historical thrillers and mysteries that explore the timeless themes of power, ambition, friendship and love – and what happens when they get in each other’s way.

His first novel, The Life and Death of Abercrombie Lyle, is set in fascist Italy with an alternative history twist – the Axis powers win WWII.

It is a story of love, betrayal and revenge, with family secrets, romance and a mystery to unravel, as it shifts between timeframes and perspectives en route to the final reckoning.

The Life and Death of Abercrombie Lyle will be published on 30 October.
