David Laws

David Laws is a national newspaper journalist who has written two thrillers, Munich The Man Who Said No! and Exit Day, with a third novel on the way – this last has just won the Yeovil Literary Prize. The Munich story tells of a woman’ s search for her missing grandfather while Exit Day has an assassin stalking Britain’ s Prime Minister. David loves great adventures and mysteries and avidly follows the work of authors like Robert Harris, Robert Goddard, Philip Kerr and Ken Follett. He always invests heavily in research for the background to his novels and bases the characters close to his Suffolk home at Bury St Edmunds. As a journalist he has conducted interviews with celebrities such as Jack Higgins, Marti Caine, Robert Ludlum and Leo Kessler. When not working as a reporter or sub-editor on newspapers and magazines, he’ s tried his hand at driving buses and trains, flying gliders, selling glassware, delivering bread... and some very reluctant soldiering.
