Adventures in the media jungle

Better Call Louis is a no holds barred look behind the scenes of over thirty years of media scandals seen through the eyes of one of the UK’s leading media lawyers.

From the infamous Bashir / Diana interview, getting Amber Heard to be a witness against Johnny Depp, advising Robert Murat when falsely named as a suspect in the disappearance of Maddie McCann, right up to the downfall of Huw Edwards, Louis Charalambous has been in the thick of it.

‘Better Call Louis is incisive, startling and a lot of fun. Charalambous has seen Britain’s most sensational, sordid and consequential libel cases from the inside, and it’s finally his turn to tell all.’

What possesses someone to claim asylum in his own country?

Can novice refugee lawyer, Alex, prove himself worthy of the job and the woman he adores? In Sanctuary, desperation reigns, art mirrors life and twisty thriller meets witty love story. 
"Everyone should read this furious defence of the voiceless. Sanctuary is a blistering novel that speaks for the migrants our politics would rather silence. It unmasks a system built to exploit the powerless. In exposing the hypocrisies of refugee policy, Sanctuary holds up a mirror to our times and reveals that the real emergency is not migration, but how we treat those who migrate."
Chris Cleave, author of The Other Hand
