Terence Hamilton is the author of 'The Brussels Connection', a tightly paced thriller set around the 2016 Islamic State bombings at Brussels Airport.

His second novel, 'The Healer,' explores Europe’s darker recent history through the 2008 race to capture “The Beast of Bosnia.” The chase through the Balkans reveals the disturbing reality of war, nationalism, genocide, and betrayal.

After leaving 1980s Merseyside to join the UK Royal Air Force, Terence served in Germany and the Middle East before building a career in consulting. His interests range from Islamic culture and military history to DJing techno and teaching scuba diving.

“One, remember to look up at the stars and not down at your feet. Two, never give up work. Work gives you meaning and purpose and life is empty without it. Three, if you are lucky enough to find love, remember it is there and don't throw it away.”
