Hooray for the Next To Die

Michael Millar was an award-winning journalist before taking his pieces of silver and becoming a political lobbyist and corporate spin doctor. Before turning to the dark side, Michael reported from Iraq during the war; was business editor of BBC's Radio 4 Today programme; and wrote, broadcast and dissembled from all sorts of programmes, websites and publications, some more august than others. As a non-fiction author, Michael's previous work includes The Secret Lives of Numbers (Random House, 2012), which was a bestseller for the publisher and translated into several languages. In this book, Michael began to hone the writing style that drives his latest story. He is also co-author of The Five-Minute Failure (Rock-Hill Publishing, 2006).

'A great read. Lose yourself as Michael takes you on a thrilling adventure.' - Tim Lovejoy, TV presenter; 'A fascinating, dark and witty look at a world gone wrong. A glorious read.' - Lou Sanders, comedian; 'Bloody (and) brilliant. Prepare to be pulled into a world where dark comedy and high tension collide, driven by characters alive with hope and desire, greed and violence.' - Phil Davies, playwright and screenwriter; 'Taut writing and sharp-edged tension. Millar is like a darkly humorous Kafka.' - Jack Hayes, author of When Eagles Burn
