My second novel, When The Actor Inspired Chaos and Bloodshed, is scheduled for release on April 1st. Today, The Star, sometimes known as the Sheffield Star, carried a wonderful review of the novel. “Litchfield’s intense and topical drama sizzles like charred meat over hot coals, eventually erupting into a massive blaze of mesmerising chaos,” book critic Pam Norfolk writes. “Amidst the thrills and spills, readers encounter a cast of well-defined characters whose actions and voices manage to rise above the risible film script. Fans of edge-of-the-seat thrillers filled with exotic settings, non-stop action, and a cast of ambitious artistes battling fears, egos, insecurities, and daily disasters, will relish Nicholas Litchfield’s pulse-pounding novel, When The Actor Inspired Chaos and Bloodshed.”
