Richard Grainger

Richard Grainger has worked as a teacher, personal trainer, restaurateur, reluctant wedding planner, rugby coach and journalist.

His first book, The Last Latrine, is an account of his experiences in Nepal running the world’s highest marathon.

Losing the Plot was his debut novel and the first in the Richie Malone series. He is currently working on a sequel.

Saving Dave, his second novel, is the uniquely moving narrative of an eighteen year-old blind, quadriplegic victim of medical negligence, who also suffers from locked-in syndrome.

Dave is highly intelligent, has an almost photographic memory and is capable of absorbing knowledge at a phenomenal rate.

Trouble is, he’s the only one who knows this.

Richard divides his time between Marbella, Spain, where he writes, and Wroclaw, Poland, where he enjoys Polish beer and teaches English part time. His main interests are rugby union, cricket, history, and horse riding.
