Andrew Raymond

I've been a fan of thrillers ever since watching All the President's Men when I was far too young to understand what was going on. Now every day I get to indulge in my passion for fast-paced stories, characters you really care about, and to bring you behind the scenes of the intelligence agencies and the most secretive parts of the political world (the parts they don't want you to know about).

It's often said that I write cinematically, which isn't a coincidence, as my influences are as much in cinema as literature: Daniel Craig's Bond films, Glengarry Glen Ross, Spartan. TV has also been a major factor in my writing. From the original BBC miniseries State of Play, David Simon's The Wire, and Aaron Sorkin, writer of The West Wing; and the US

I’m John Jacob Dawson. I’m a 37 year father of five and when I’m not striving to a writer I work in the IT industry.

I always find these things so hard to write, as I’m sure many of you do! All I can say is that, I love reading, any genre really but more specifically Crime and Sci-if thrillers that are more grounded in reality all my jam! I love characters that make you question their morals and your own. I love a protagonist with a genuine cause who truly believes they’re doing the right thing - even if they do questionable things to get there.

Aside from writing I love spending time with my family and going on adventures with them. I also play English 8-ball pool for my local team.
