About Matt

Matt Blake

I'm an award-winning author and journalist who has spent my career telling extraordinary true stories. Along the way, I've written about war, sport, sex, film, politics, crime – the works – in the UK's leading newspapers and magazines.

An ex crime reporter for the Daily Mirror and The Independent, I've also covered some of the UK's most high-profile criminal cases, from gangland murders to serial killers. My debut book, The Killer Who Lived Here, was published by Elliott & Thompson in 2025.
