from DCT Audio, home of the podcast · host Dave Thomas

Author of “No Ordinary Day”.Matt Johnson is a former military veteran and police officer. Due to his experiences he suffered from PTSD and was advised to take up writing as a form of therapy. It turned out he was rather good at it and has now penned four award winning novels. His latest book is a non fiction account of the murder of WPC Yvonne Fletcher outside the Libyan Embassy in 1984 and her close friend PC John Murray 37 year quest to bring her killers to justice. He draws on his own experiences that day and his investigation into the incident which saw the involvement of the government, the Secret Intelligence Service and the Libyans themselves. It is an eye opening account of state collusion involving the purchase of oil from the Libyan's in order to break the miners strike at the time. You have to keep reminding yourself when you reads Matt’s book, it is a factual account and not a work of fiction.
