Chris Cleave’s debut novel Incendiary was a prize-winner and international bestseller and his second novel, The Other Hand has found phenomenal success both in the UK and abroad, hitting number one on The New York Times bestseller list. It is is the unflinching, brutal story of a Nigerian refugee and a British glossy magazine editor, which balances an outwardly political motive with rich, deep character development (and even some welcome humour). Chris is married with three children, and lives in Kingston-upon-Thames.
Paula Kitching is a historian specialising in Holocaust and War studies, an educational consultant and a writer.
