Thomas Mogford has worked as a journalist for Time Out and as a translator for the UEFA Champions League. His first novel in the Spike Sanguinetti series, Shadow of the Rock, was published by Bloomsbury in 2012. It received a starred review from Library Journal, which described it as a 'breathtaking debut ... Mogford's exotic locales, gorgeous prose, and closing twist make this debut a showstopper'. Thomas Mogford is married and lives with his family in London. @ThomasMogford http://www.thomasmogford.com/
Thomas Mogford's second Sanguinetti thriller continues the
excellent work of this London-based journalist and writer. As the
hero peels back the layers of Malta's melting pot of a society, he
delves further into the complicated world of the Knights of St
John, which will leave the reader eagerly anticipating the next
instalment of Sanguinetti's exciting life * Irish Examiner *
Mogford packs a great deal into a relatively slim novel but it's
the familiar Mediterranean setting, fascinatingly presented, that
will linger in reader's memories * Morning Star *
He has created a really intriguing central character in Spike
Sanguinetti. A lawyer, not a detective or cop. A Gibraltar lawyer,
even more fascinating and unusual, with license to roam. An
intelligent shrewd young man with flaws and problems and a
different personal history and not some hyper-competent super-hero.
In other words a very human being. You go with Spike on his
perilous journey and the complex pleasures and chicanery that ensue
make you want to go on more of them * William Boyd *
