This year I am working on my fourth book for Bloomsbury Publishing, provisionally titled "Thunder Through The Realms" and I will be able to talk about that soon! In the meantime, you can also catch me on Hever Castle's fantastic new online subscription series: Inside Hever Castle, which allows viewers to explore this historic property from the comfort of your home. To subscribe please visit inside-hever-castle

I have been a consultant and expert contributor for an exciting new three part series on the Boleyn family for BBC2, which I will be able to talk about shortly.

Throughout 2019 and 2020 I was busy working on two exciting books, one for Bloomsbury Academic and the other for Batsford Books.

In September my third book, the Wolf Hall Companion, is out with Batsford Books, and book 4 is on the horizon! You can also catch me on the three part Smithsonian series, "Henry VIII and the King's men" hosted by Dr Tracy Borman.
