I have written three novels, Hijacking Japan, Tokyo 20/20 Vision and FOUR, and am currently working on a fourth, Officer Death Fall From Japan’s Floating Palace. All of the novels are primarily based in Japan, using my knowledge and experiences of living in and visiting Japan, and conducting research about aspects of Japanese society and culture for over 35 years, as a basis for being able to ensure there is a degree of realism about the plots and characters.
I am the author of five non-fiction books; Japan: The Basics (two editions), Osutaka: A Chronicle of Loss in the World’s Largest Single Plane Crash, Dealing With Disaster in Japan: Responses to the Flight JL123 Crash, Shinkansen: From Bullet Train to Symbol of Modern Japan, and Education Reform in Japan: Nakasone’s Legacy. I am currently writing two books related to Frankie Goes To Hollywood – Frankie Goes To Hollywood: Song by Song and Frankie Fans Say Welcome To Our World.
