It’s been a while since l’ve had crime writing news. I’ve signed a two book contract with Penguin Random House for an historical noir fiction series set in Melbourne. The first book, which takes place in the late 1960s, is out September 2027. You can bet you’ll be hearing more about it soon.

Travelling at present so next Substack newsletter is delayed. Meanwhile, here’s a short story I wrote about Lee Marvin’s passion for deep sea fishing, his unlikely friendship with actor Toshiro Mifune & the film that they made together, HELL IN THE PACIFIC (1968)

What the hell has got into the culture that someone thinks they can sit in a resturant - or any public space for that matter- and subject everyone around them to conversation on the loud speaker of their mobile??

A great list. Happy to see it includes John MacKenzie’s UNMAN, WITTERING AND ZIGO (1971) and Jules Dassin’s UPTIGHT (1968), both of which I wrote about for @sightsoundmag.bsky.social ‘s Lost and Found column several years ago, amongst many other good films.
Since 2014, we've been asking writers to spotlight great films that were impossible to find on disc or streaming services in our monthly 'Lost and found' column
All 118 are now compiled into one list. How many have you seen?

I really dig the intensely analogue texture and feel of German artist Johnny Bruck’s science fiction illustration and am a bit perplexed that he is not better known.

Yes, that is indeed a shame. His work was very niche though. I only know him due to his work for #perryrhodan.

👻 Childhood memories: 🦇
Spotted in a Berlin flea market on the weekend. An LP record of a German horror play. I think it translates as ‘Countess Dracula, Daughter of the Evil One’. There was a whole series of these and they are highly collectable.
