About The Author

Michael Russell

After a successful career as a television writer and producer, working on such series as A Touch of Frost, Midsomer Murders and Between the Lines, Michael Russell decided to write what he had always wanted to: books.

Michael’s Stefan Gillespie historical crime fiction series takes a sideways look at the Second World War through Irish eyes, and explores unexpected corners of the conflict, such as Danzig, New York and Franco’s Spain. The first two Stefan Gillespie novels, The City of Shadows and The City of Strangers were both shortlisted for Crime Writers’ Association awards.

Michael lives with his family in West Wicklow, in Ireland, not a million miles from Stefan Gillespie’s home.
