Patrick Brigham

Patrick has been a writer and journalist for many years. He has published many short stories, newspaper and magazine articles. Born in the English home counties, he attended Public School and College before moving to London and embarking on his property career.

Having spent the last twenty years in South Eastern Europe, many of his stories are set in this part of the world as well as in Oxford, London, Hampshire and Berkshire. In the last two years he has only written stand alone literary fiction novels, including Goddess of The Rainbow, and The London Property Boy. 

 Does author Patrick Brigham write good murder mystery books? Author Patrick Brigham writes good mystery books, many of which are set at the very end of the Cold War and Communism. Featuring fictional police detective Chief Inspector Michael Lambert, he is often faced with political intrigue, and in order to solve his cases - which frequently take place in Eastern Europe and the Balkans.

There are few good books on the subject of international crime, especially mystery stories which delve into the shady side of Balkan politics, neither are there many novelists who are prepared to address the mystery crime fiction, like the author Patrick Brigham.

As a recently seconded officer to Europol, the new EU federal police force, Chief Inspector Michael Lambert brings a new slant to the European crime fiction. 

 During the last two years I have become more involved with stand alone fiction, with my two books Goddess Of The Rainbow, and The London Property Boy. The first is about Greece, and a great flood, and the second, a semi biographical account of a career in London property.

Also, I have just published a play called Judicial Review, which is now out and in the shops, It is about the absurdities of justice, when it comes to huge financial and corporate crimes, and the way courts deal with the offenders.
