When
James Brooke finds himself ruling his own country in Victorian Borneo, he
starts with the best of intentions. Then the pirates come and he is on the run.
'The
White Rajah' is the story of a man fighting for his life, who has to choose
between his beliefs and the chance of victory. Based on a true story, Brooke's
battle is a tale of adventure set against the background of a jungle world of
extraordinary beauty and terrible savagery.
Bio
Tom
used to write books for business, covering everything from the gambling
industry to new developments in printing technology. Now he writes about love
and adventure in the 19th century, which is not nearly as well paid, but much
more fun. It also allows him to pretend that travelling in the Far East and South
America is research.
Tom
is the author of 'The White Rajah' and 'Cawnpore' and is working on a series
about a spy in the Napoleonic wars. When he's not writing or travelling, Tom
likes to skate on the streets of London or dance tango almost anywhere.
