I am looking for representation from a screenwriting agent as I have several
award winning scripts that are crying out to be filmed.
The scripts are from best selling books.
I have completed full synopses, breakdown of costs, pitches and presentations
on Powerpoint which are available on request.
Trojan: 159 pages. Adapted from the book by Alan McDermott.
Three or four part series.
Winner of the Best Adapted Screenplay British Film Festival 2020.
Synopsis.
When MI5 learns that a horrifying new weapon is in enemy hands,
agent Andrew Harvey is called in to track it down before it reaches
British soil. The clock is ticking. Andrew and his girlfriend, Sarah,
also a secret service operative, have only one lead: a beautiful
refugee, desperate not to lose her son. But is she desperate enough
to betray everything she believes in? And will she do it in time to help
them prevent a terrifying attack?
As Andrew and Sarah race to unravel a convoluted web of subterfuge
and exploitation, they discover there is more at stake than even they knew.
And somewhere, at the heart of it, lurks a faceless enemy,
who is prepared to use everything—and everyone—at his disposal.
When Good Men Do Nothing. 233 pages.
Adapted from the book by Paul Grzegorek. Four part series.
Winner of seven awards at international film festivals.
Synopsis.
When a seaman with quiet ties to MI6 is executed in his Brighton flat,
DS Rob Steele is drawn into what looks like a professional underworld hit.
But the case turns darker when a key associate is murdered,
a marina boat explodes, and MI6 liaison Harvey Merrington reveals
the dead men may have been connected to covert smuggling operations.
As Steele follows a trail through local gangsters, stolen security gear,
and shadowy foreign operatives, the investigation opens onto a far
larger threat —
a planned terrorist attack hiding inside what first appeared to
be routine violent crime.
At the centre of the fallout is Gemma Hallett, an ordinary woman
abducted after witnessing the first murder and repurposed as part
of the extremists’ operation. With his team under pressure and Brighton
moving toward catastrophe, Steele must work alongside an
intelligence service he doesn’t fully trust to stop an escalating conspiracy
involving kidnappings, bombings, false fronts, and a major strike on the
American Express complex. In the end, the attack is prevented and
the immediate network is broken, but the story leaves behind a hard,
unsettling truth: violence, corruption, and manipulation run deeper
than a single case.
Fifteen Times a Killer. 196 pages. Adapted from the book by Alan McDermott.
A four part series. Winner of nineteen awards.
Synopsis.
When FBI agent Corrina Stone follows a cryptic What3Words clue to
a burial site near Los Angeles, she uncovers human remains and a plastic
pouch containing pages from a manuscript titled Fifteen Times a Killer.
The document reads like a confession from a serial killer who is not only
recounting his crimes, but deliberately feeding them to investigators as
part of a game. As Corrina reconnects with former colleague Loney
and the FBI begins piecing together the evidence, the case expands from
one grisly discovery into a larger hunt for a murderer who appears to have
killed many times and wants the world to understand his twisted logic.
The story unfolds through two parallel threads: the present-day investigation
and the killer’s written chapters, which dramatize his past murders and
reveal his psychology. The manuscript traces the origins of the killer’s mindset
back to childhood trauma, neglect, and bullying, centering on
a boy named Kevin, whose pain hardens into a belief that certain people
deserve punishment. As more chapters emerge, the killer frames his murders
as righteous acts against people he sees as corrupt, cruel, or morally hollow.
His voice is chillingly self-justifying, and each new installment pulls Corrina
deeper into both the mechanics of the crimes and the worldview behind them.
As bodies and clues continue to surface, journalist Jess becomes part of the
killer’s plan when he begins contacting her directly, demanding that his story
be shared with the world. He sees himself not simply as a murderer, but as the
author of a legacy — someone whose actions should inspire others to continue
his mission. Corrina and Loney realize they are chasing a man who craves
recognition as much as he craves control, and whose killings are designed to
build toward something larger than individual murder. The investigation becomes
a race to decode his pattern before more victims are claimed.
Dark, procedural, and deeply unsettling, Fifteen Times a Killer is a serial killer
thriller about trauma curdling into fanaticism, and about an investigator forced to
enter the mind of a predator who believes he is delivering justice rather than horror.
Irish Tales from Coolshannagh. 200 pages. Adapted from the book by Christo Loynska.
A four part series. Excellent family viewing. Winner of six awards.
Genre: Period Drama / Irish Folk Ensemble.
Tone: Lyrical, earthy, funny, heartbreaking.
Setting: Rural Ireland, late 19th to early 20th century.
Synopsis.
Tales from Coolshannagh is a sweeping, generation-spanning drama set in a small
Irish village where travellers, locals, priests, teachers, and misfits all collide in a richly
textured world shaped by memory, myth, grief, and survival. At its heart is
Stochelo Maloni, the proud leader of a travelling Romani family, whose life is
marked by love, humiliation, resilience, and the slow realization that education may be
the only true inheritance he can pass on.
The story begins with the Maloni clan and the childhood rivalry between Stochelo and
his younger brother Tomas, set against a world where oral tradition matters more than
literacy. But when Tomas later humiliates his illiterate brother in public, Stochelo’s shame
becomes a turning point. Determined that his son will not suffer the same fate,
he becomes fiercely committed to giving the next generation
something he never had: the power to read, to understand, and to move through
the world with dignity.
As the story settles into the village of Coolshannagh, the film opens into a broad, deeply
humane ensemble. A brilliant one-handed immigrant schoolteacher arrives carrying her
own painful past. A beloved priest becomes the moral and emotional centre of the community.
Travellers and townspeople clash, connect, and reshape one another over the years
through births, deaths, marriages, rivalries, music, storytelling, and quiet acts of generosity.
The village itself becomes a living organism — intimate, comic, chaotic, and full of buried histories.
What makes Tales from Coolshannagh distinctive is its ability to move fluidly between
folklore, comedy, romance, and tragedy without ever losing emotional truth. This is not a
conventional plot-driven drama, but a woven tapestry of lives, where seemingly small
events accumulate into something epic and deeply moving. Themes of belonging, exile,
identity, literacy, love, and remembrance run throughout, all anchored by vivid characters
and a sense of place that feels both mythic and authentic.
It offers a rare combination: an Irish period piece with scale, warmth, humour, and soul —
the kind of story that can play as both a culturally rooted drama and
a universally resonant human tale.
