Kris Hollington is a freelance investigative journalist, author and ghost-writer living and working in London.
As a journalist, he has written a number of investigative pieces on subjects as diverse as mass murder, armed robbery, African drug smugglers, diamond mining, art and jewellery theft, the space race, HM Customs and Excise and police corruption for The Sunday Times, The Guardian, The Mail on Sunday, The Evening Standard, BBC Radio 4’s File on 4 and BBC1’s Panorama.
He recently turned his attention towards the theft of Munch’s iconic painting the Scream from the Munch Museum in Oslo – his investigation caused uproar in Norway when the results were published in the Mail on Sunday, shortly after the painting’s recovery in November 2006.
Kris Hollington is also an assassinologist and uncovered the truth behind the world’s most influential assassinations (some well-known, some relatively unknown) for his book How to Kill (Century, 2007). He is the creator of www.assassinology.org, a website dedicated to the study of assassination.
Kris recently co-authored Line of Fire (Simon and Schuster, 2008), the explosive autobiography of Brain Paddick, former Deputy Assistant Commissioner of the Met Police and current Lib Dem candidate for the Mayor of London.
how I found the agency
"I discovered Andrew by going through the writer's bible, the Writers' and Artists' Yearbook and was drawn to the fact that he represented several other journalists. Andrew was the most positive of the four agents I approached and the quickest off the mark (he called me the day my proposal arrived to say he was interested), which impressed me. By the time the other agents had got in touch I had decided that Andrew was the best agent for me; he had immediately made me feel that my book was as good as published."subscribe to agency's newsletter
