Posted on 17th October 2023 by Mark Skinner

The thriller actor brings his skills to the page.

Having created thrills on screen as an actor it was perhaps only a matter of time before Richard Armitage decided to create a literary thriller of his own. After memorable appearances in TV thrillers like Spooks and three separate Harlan Coben dramas, Armitage has penned his own, Geneva, which sees a Nobel Prize-winning scientist forced to question everything as intrigue swirls around a new bio-tech innovation. Will Rycroft sat down with Richard to talk about literary influences, his approach to writing, and why acting and music have both helped him create this first novel.
