After three decades in policing — rising to Chief Superintendent in Brighton & Hove, leading homicide investigations, and commanding public order and firearms operations — Graham Bartlett now brings the world of crime to the page with unflinching authenticity 📚
His nonfiction debut Death Comes Knocking (co-written with Peter James) was a Sunday Times bestseller, followed by Babes in the Wood. His Jo Howe crime fiction series — Bad for Good, Force of Hate, and City on Fire — has earned critical acclaim, bestseller status, and award nominations.
🔥 In City on Fire, Chief Superintendent Jo Howe launches a bold offensive on Brighton’s drug underworld after losing her sister to an overdose. But when she threatens the empire of powerful businessman Sir Ben Parsons — whose influence spans politics, media, and organised crime — a brutal reckoning begins
Graham is also a sought-after police and crime advisor, working with over 200 authors and screenwriters to help bring realism to the page and screen. His collaborators include Peter James, Elly Griffiths, Anthony Horowitz, Ruth Ware, Mark Billingham, and the BBC.
He teaches crime writing through online and in-person workshops from his home, and regularly appears at major writing festivals and in true crime documentaries 🎙️🖋️
