Book #3 has now begun.

Book #2 will be published in the United States on November 10, and I’m keeping my fingers crossed that it becomes everyone’s go-to book about Ukraine.

A case of author identity theft!

Dear all,
Someone has been impersonating me. This person has created an email address using my instagram handle. This is not me. If you have received this same email delete it or if you wish explain to the scoundrel they are not the REAL Alex Shaw!

I’ve just had breakfast on the outside terrace of Paul’s, with views of the world’s tallest building the Burj Khalifa. That’s not bad, for a Tuesday morning.

2026 will be a busy writing year for me. I have two new books to deliver, one features existing characters and the other is an ‘origin’ story. Plus the third Wolf Six thriller ‘Target Echo’ will be published in early February.
A Happy New Year to you all!
Or as they say in Ukraine, З новим роком!
