Tom Bradby is a British journalist and novelist. He has been the anchor of ITV News at Ten since 2015, and before that he served as the network’s political editor. His career in journalism has taken him around the world, and that international experience shows up clearly in his fiction. He published his first novel, Shadow Dancer, in 1998, drawing on the Northern Ireland conflict for its plot about an IRA member turned informant.

His standalone novels are historical thrillers set in various parts of the world. The White Russian takes place during the Russian Revolution in St. Petersburg. The Master of Rain is a crime novel set in 1920s Shanghai. The God of Chaos returns to wartime Egypt. Blood Money covers post-WWII New York, and Yesterday’s Spy (2022) is set in 1950s France during the Cold War. Each book uses a real historical setting to build a tense, atmospheric story.

In 2019, Bradby began the Kate Henderson trilogy with Secret Service, followed by Double Agent (2020) and Triple Cross (2021). These books center on an MI6 officer investigating a Russian spy within the British government, and they draw heavily on the kind of political intrigue Bradby covers in his day job.
