Goodreads asked Derek Thompson:

What are you currently working on?

Derek Thompson My fifth thriller, No Defence, continuing Thomas Bladen's Spy Chaser series. This book takes place in the aftermath of the 2005 London Bombing, when the Surveillance Support Unit has been reassigned to MI5 as additional resource. Karl tells Thomas they're playing with the big boys now, but that only leads to more complications in both the day job and the clandestine struggle against the pan-European Shadow State. Is this Thomas's fall from grace?

I'm also looking for representation for a standalone novel, set in the UK and US in the late 1980s. Scars & Stripes is a dark comedy about one person's attempt to live the American Dream with all of his British baggage on the journey!

Finally, I am keenly looking for agents to consider the TV or film rights for the Spy Chaser series. All recommendations gratefully received!
