O.C. Heaton

I write what I love to read - globetrotting, big issue thrillers that are super well researched inside complex plots full of twists and turns.

The result of the above is The Race Is On Series, an idea I had on a trip to Iceland. The first in the series is called LEAP, which tells the tale of a device which has the power to halt global warming. The ensuing race to control the power of this machine continues in:
- Green Ray, Book 2,
- ATOM INC, Book 3, and
- Godwin's Revenge, Book 4, which launches 31st March 2025.

I have also written a prequel to The Race Is On series called MAD which you can download for FREE off my website.
