Cold Press blitzes the bestseller charts…

David Bradwell - Cold PressWell that was quite a day.

Of late, all of the attention has been on Fade To Silence, as it’s the shiny new book and seems to be getting lovely reviews. However, the story really begins on the day Clare goes missing in 1993, so I did a little promotion on Cold Press – book 1 in the series – and it all went mad.

Over 30,000 copies were downloaded in a day, with a further 10,000 the day after. Here are the Amazon USA chart positions:

Stand by for book 5…

Fade To Silence is here!

David Bradwell - Fade To SilenceI am exceptionally pleased to announce the arrival of Fade To Silence – book 4 in the Anna Burgin series.

It was written over the first eight months of 2018, and involved trips to Bulgaria and Devon – as well as lots of late nights curled up with a laptop and candles.

You know you’ve got problems when being hunted by a Serbian hitman is the least of your worries…

Balkan gangsters, corporate spies and a fugitive killer are all on the loose in London, but when a body shows up, all of the evidence points to the victim’s wife.

Is it a domestic dispute, or part of a much bigger conspiracy? Fresh from suspension for alleged corruption, DCI Graham March seems far too eager to close the case.

Despite being warned off by his editor, journalist Danny Churchill wants to find the truth –  and enlists the help of his flatmate: fashion photographer Anna Burgin. But when an old friend gets involved, and reports emerge of a huge shipment of weapons heading to the UK, it soon becomes their most complex, dangerous and action-packed investigation so far.

And as Danny and Anna get closer to the facts, the more the odds seem terrifyingly stacked against them.

Packed with twists, intrigue and dark humour, Fade To Silence is a gripping British mystery thriller, and book 4 in the bestselling Anna Burgin series.

Fade To Silence is available in ebook and print versions just about everywhere. See it at your favourite retailer by clicking this link. And thank you, as ever, for your interest and support!

First draft of Fade To Silence now complete… video on the way

Sea Trout InnAfter lots and lots of late nights, I’m pleased to announce that the first draft of Fade To Silence is now finished. After the customary polishing over the next few days, it will be heading to Carrie, the editor, very soon and is therefore still on target for an August release. Yay!

Staverton WeirIt was a huge amount of fun to write, and some of the twists and turns even took me by surprise as I was writing them. If you’ve enjoyed the other books in the series, I’m sure you’ll like this one too. It’s got lots of familiar elements, and a fair few scary new ones too.

A steam train is coming...During the latter stages of writing, I popped down to the beautiful village of Staverton in Devon for an intensive couple of days, locked away in a pub with the laptop. You’ll see why when you read it, haha. It also gave me the chance to do some filming for a trailer video that is currently in production. I’m heading up to the north east in August to do more filming there, and will spend a few days in London as soon as the weather calms down a bit.

Huge thanks, as ever for your interest. Preparation for book five will be starting soon. More candles are at the ready…

Fade To Silence… coming soon!

Fade To SilenceHere’s a sneak preview of the new work-in-progress cover of the next book in the series… due out in August 2018 if I get a move on!

It’s 1995 and the war in the Balkans is drawing to a close, but the battle is set to continue in the boardrooms of London. There’s corporate espionage, murder, mystery, intrigue, and an twist-filled climax that you won’t see coming…

Watch this space for more 🙂

Book 3 progress… on target for the summer

I discovered this week that if you have a MacBook Pro, you shouldn’t really attempt to clean the screen with Windolene unless you’re pretty sure it won’t leak into the internals… Sadly that was a lesson learned the hard way, and the laptop upon which the three current books were written is currently away at the menders…

On the upside, though, moving to my desktop computer gave a whole new perspective on the development of the next novel, and it’s coming along at a rapid pace.

It’s set in 1995 and there’s all sorts of shenanigans, including corporate espionage, Balkan spies, an abduction, and a great big vendetta. There’s a giant twist too, and once you’ve got your head round that, there’s an even bigger one…

Carrie, the editor, has given me a deadline of the end of June, so assuming I meet that, it should be out in August. Watch this space for more 🙂
