Agency author Henry R. Schlesinger (Honey Trapped: Sex, Betrayal & Weaponised Love) was interviewed on BBC Radio 4 for Broadcasting House, the Sunday morning news magazine programme with Paddy O’Connell.
The sequence on Honey traps is around 29 mins in, an old espionage tactic, in the news with a senior Conservative MP admitting his involvement in a honey trap.
He was also interviewed on the Spy Talk podcast.
Not to be outdone, Mary Novakovich (My Family and Other Enemies) appeared on BBC Radio 4’s From Our Own Correspondent at 17:59.
Rab Island off the north coast of Croatia was once home to a lesser-known Italian concentration camp, where some 4,000 people were killed during World War Two. Mary Novakovich visited the island, where she met a woman who began her life in one of the camps.
She was also shortlisted in the TravMedia Awards for the specialist travel writer of the year. The awards are on April 22nd, so fingers crossed!
Staying on the Croatian theme, fellow travel writer Daniel Stables explored the rich cultural landscape of Istria for the May edition of National Geographic Traveller.
Continuing on the travel road, agency author Shafik Meghji (Crossed Off the Map: Travels in Bolivia) contributed to DK Eyewitness’ new Unforgettable Journeys The Americas, out now from about remarkable trips by train, road, bike & water, including travelling down Bolivia’s ‘death road’ & riding the southernmost railway on Earth.
And further congratulations to Shafik for winning an Inspire Global Award for his Evening Standard piece on Indigenous tourism.
