Greg Coonen

Greg Coonen is the author of "The Fat Finger", and its catalan translation "La pífia".
Born in Paris, Greg studied at the Lycée International de Saint-Germain before going on to
Georgetown University’s SFS, graduating with a kindled interest in
geopolitics.
Initiating his career as a journalist in Madrid, where he subsequently studied his MBA, Greg then founded his own
company. The next twenty years took him to more than 70 countries across the globe, interviewing presidents, ministers and CEOs.
Although Greg hugely enjoyed the diversity of a globetrotting lifestyle, it was witnessing his daughters’
reactions to the books he wrote which has turned out to be his most thrilling journey to date. Greg
thus discovered his inner storyteller, but there was always an itch to spin a more complex tale, one founded in the worlds he’d discovered professionally .
This itch has now been scratched in his debut novel “The Fat Finger”, a financial thriller with a twist of real geopolitik.
