Garry Bushell

Garry Bushell | Caffeine Nights Books

Garry Bushell is one of Britain's most recognisable cultural voices — a journalist, broadcaster, and author whose fiction carries the same sharp wit, street-level authenticity, and uncompromising energy that defined his decades in the media. His novels published through Caffeine Nights Books span gritty London noir, hard-edged thriller, and darkly comic horror — all written with the instinct of a storyteller who knows his audience.

The Novels

All or Nothing and Face Down are the cornerstones of Bushell's crime fiction — London noir with real grit and a voice that feels lived-in rather than constructed. Harder Than The Rest, co-written with Craig Brackenridge, brings the same energy to a harder-edged thriller. Bad Apple takes Harry Tyler to New York, expanding Bushell's crime universe with transatlantic swagger. Hell Bent showcases a different side entirely — a comedy horror novel that is as funny as it is unsettling, and proof that Bushell's range extends well beyond the streets of London. All or Nothing is also available as an eBook for readers who prefer digital.

What to Expect

Garry Bushell's fiction is rooted in the same world his journalism explored — working-class Britain, street culture, and the kind of characters who don't make the broadsheets. His novels are fast-paced, sharply observed, and impossible to put down.
