David Blake

Having sold over a million books around the world, and with number one bestsellers in both the UK and Australia, David Blake is known for writing fast-paced crime thrillers that are impossible to put down. When not writing, he likes to spend his time mucking about in boats, often in the Norfolk Broads, where most of his books are based.

Praise for Broadlands:

"I bloody loved the book. Wow! Loved the twists and turns!"

Ali Dunn, about Broadlands

"Beautifully written, brutally wrenching, this is David Blake's best work so far."
