Tom Bradby | Red Scorpion

Join acclaimed journalist and broadcaster Tom Bradby, the presenter of ITV’s News at Ten, for an unmissable discussion of stories, insight, and intrigue.

In addition to his distinguished journalism career, Tom is the bestselling author of eleven gripping thrillers, and his latest novel, Red Scorpion, is a tense, darkly atmospheric story set against the violent backdrop of Colombia’s drug war underworld.  Red Scorpion follows Dr Laura Strong, struggling with debt and family pressures, and Rafa Fernandez, a reluctant heir to a criminal empire, as their lives collide amid betrayals, danger, and dark legacies.

Tom will share how he crafts his novels, from developing complex characters to building suspenseful plots, and offer a fascinating glimpse into the inspirations behind his stories.  He will also discuss screenwriting – his adaptation of his novel Secret Service will be shown on ITV in May.

This event is perfect for fans of thrillers, journalism, and anyone curious about how real-world experiences shape gripping fiction.
