He has also won a coveted Royal Television Society Award for his reporting in the United States, and has recently completed a radio documentary series for BBC World Service and BBC Radio Four, The Clinton Years.

For eight years Gavin Esler was the BBC’s Chief North America Correspondent based in Washington.

Powerplay, published in Harper Collins paperback in May 2010, is set at the end of the Obama administration. It tells the story of the decline in the US-British “special relationship” as seen through the eyes of Alex Price, the British ambassador to Washington, at a time of crisis. The British, Scottish and American governments find themselves having a huge row over terrorism. To patch things up the British invite the new American vice president to come on a shooting trip to Scotland – where he disappears.
