About Robert
Hello, and thanks for visiting my blog.
I started writing in 1986 in Vienna. One night, my girlfriend was late for a date. While I waited, I had an idea that turned into my first novel. When I lived in Moscow 1992-95, someone told me to “write about what you know”. I wrote a thriller set in early 1990s Russia.
