Tom Gamble is the only man on the shortlist for the Romantic Novelists Association Novel of the Year Award for his fiction debut set in 1930s Morocco.

'I've always wanted to be a writer and this turn of events is a dream come true. And to be the only man on the shortlist is even more exciting.'
Gamble, who now lives in France, said the period he spent living on the streets in London ended when he met an American girl who put him 'back on the road to recovery'.
AmazirPublisher Simon Petherick said Gamble's novel, called Amazir, was an 'epic'.
