While in his second year at Oxford he wrote, aged 19, a biography of Lord Alfred Douglas that was described by Christopher Hitchens as "masterly". After leaving Oxford Murray wrote a play, Nightfall, about the Swedish anti-Nazi hero Raoul Wallenberg. In 2005 he published a defence of neoconservatism – Neoconservatism: Why We Need It – and undertook a related promotional tour of the United States. In 2007 he assisted in the writing of Towards a Grand Strategy for an Uncertain World: Renewing Transatlantic Partnership by Gen. Dr. Klaus Naumann, Gen. John Shalikashvili, Field Marshal The Lord Inge, Adm. Jacques Lanxade, and Gen. Henk van den Breemen. Upon publication, The Guardian reported that among its recommendations was that, as a last resort, NATO should be prepared to launch a pre-emptive nuclear attack in order to prevent the use of weapons of mass destruction.
