His first novel Lo Peor de todo (The Worst Thing of All), was published in 1992, and was followed by Héroes in 1993. Caídos del Cielo - La pistola de mi hermano (My Brother's Gun) was the first of his novels to be published in English, and he directed a film based on this book in 1997. In the same year, he worked together with Pedro Almodóvar and Jorge Guerricaechevarria to produce the screenplay for the film Carne trémula (Live Flesh), also directed by Almodóvar. The screenplay was based on the 1986 novel of the same name by the British crime writer Ruth Rendell.[2] His second novel to be published in English was Tokio ya no nos quiere (Tokyo Doesn't Love Us Anymore).[3]

Loriga married Spanish-Danish singer-songwriter Christina Rosenvinge in 1989.

In April 2017, Loriga was awarded the Alfaguara Prize for his novel Rendición (Surrender). It is one of the most financially rewarding Spanish-language literary prizes.[4] His most recent novel, Sábado, domingo (Saturday, Sunday), was published in February 2019.
