Welbeck Flame and Tibor Jones have collaborated to develop this book with a talented team of writers, including two German editors, who work collaboratively with a dynamic and creative approach echoing the TV script-writing model. The Boy Behind the Wall, and its sequel publishing in 2022, will be published under the fictional author name Maximillian Jones. The project was conceived and produced by Kevin Conroy Scott, was co-written by Michael Button, Gavin Burgess and James Horrocks and was managed by Joe Heap and Charlotte Colwill.
