Matt Blake is an award-winning journalist, writing for the Guardian, Daily Telegraph, Grazia, Esquire and Men’s Health, and former crime reporter for The Daily Mirror and The Independent. He is the author of Hearth of Darkness, a real-life psychological thriller that blends memoir, true crime and paranormal investigation to ask: "If your home had a dark past, would you want to know?" As a magazine writer, Matt has written on many subjects, from crime and war to sex and culture. He has written at length about the British citizens who travelled abroad to fight Isis, including the only comprehensive investigations into the final days of the first and second British citizens killed fighting Isis in Syria. As a newspaper reporter, he has unwittingly interviewed a murderer in his own front room (prior to his arrest), been offered a kneecapping by a London gangster and chased from a crack den in Brixton by dogs. His closest brush with death, however, was attempting to eat the Guinness world’s largest cooked breakfast in 30 minutes, without a drink. He failed.
