Autorenporträt

Andrew Caldecott is a QC specializing in media law; he has represented a wide variety of clients, from the BBC and the Guardian to supermodel Naomi Campbell. An occasional playwright, he turned his hand to fiction, when informed by his love of history, which he studied at New College, Oxford, he was seized by the notion of a city-state hiding a cataclysmic secret. Lost Acre concludes the story started in Rotherweird.
