Omid Scobie spent years reporting on the British Royal Family and chronicling their stories through his bestselling books Finding Freedom and Endgame, but now the former royal journalist is stepping inside palace walls in a new way. With Royal Spin, Scobie makes his fiction debut alongside bestselling author Robin Benway, turning firsthand royal insight into a sharply observed novel that pulls back the curtain on the Buckingham Palace press office.
The story follows Lauren, a former White House press officer who applies for a position at Buckingham Palace on a whim and completely upends her life in the process. Scobie tells Marie Claire that unlike other royal novels, Royal Spin "is set in a space that has never really been explored before."
