Richards has a writing partnership with NYC-based Matt Costello that goes back to the late 90's. Together, they have written many hours of TV. Cherringham, a series of crime fiction stories, is their first co-written project. The series features both American and English heroes, which is a fitting collaboration given that Richards is English and Costello is American. The two writers have said that they wonder what took them so long to start writing crime fiction together.
