Michael Dobbs has carved out a unique niche as Britain's leading political thriller writer. His books have foretold the downfall of Prime Ministers and the growing turmoil within the Royal Family. Every one has been a Top Ten bestseller. His first novel, House Of Cards, launched the career of the villainous Francis Urquhart, one of the most memorable fictional characters of recent years. He also appears in To Play the King and The Final Cut, and was immortalized by Ian Richardson in three award-winning BBC TV series.

For more than two decades Michael Dobbs has been at the right hand of political controversy. He was at Mrs Thatcher's side as she took her first step into Downing Street as Prime Minister, and was a key aide to John Major when he was voted out. In between times he was bombed in Brighton, banished from Chequers and blamed for failing to secure a Blair-Major television debate. His experiences have led him to be described as 'Westminster's baby-faced hit man' and 'a man who, in Latin America, would have been shot'.

Michael Dobbs' most recent novels , featuring his latest political hero, Thomas Goodfellowe MP, are Goodfellowe MP and The Buddha of Brewer Street.
