Born and educated in London, I trained as an accountant and spent a large part of my working life outside the UK. mainly in Brazil, Spain and Portugal. A vivid imagination, coupled with experience in a wide variety of industrial and commercial ventures in contrasting environments has proved a rich vein in stimulating my lifelong passion to write. At the turn of the millennium, I made the time to start writing seriously, producing my first novel, Pieces for the Wicked and two three-act plays, Painful Truths and The Last Chapter, as my introduction to the literary world. Although I do not feel committed to any specific fiction genre, I consider my subsequent novels through 2010 to date broadly fit into the suspense and thriller category. Inspired by a Latin palindrome, The Sator Square deals with a terrorist plot to kill a member of the Royal family and was published by NGP in both hardback and paperback. It was followed by Deaf Wish, a tale of adultery, deceit, betrayal and murder set, unsurprisingly, in Wales, Portugal and Spain's Costa de la Luz. My most taxing work to date is The Last Rights, the story of a Holocaust survivor who witnesses the greatest robbery of all time. Moulding the plot around the historical detail of Germany in 1945 and the Nazi escape route to South America required extensive research and I sincerely thank the historians who made my task and the novel possible. It was perhaps a reflex that the release which followed, Irreconcilable Differences, is a black comedy, dealing with deadly inter-family rivalries. As I write this bio, my latest novel, Octogen, is about to be released. A dystopian plot, set in 2065, a family in crisis is faced with the terrifying consequences of a project - codename Octogen. Working in Eastbourne, I travel frequently to the Algarve where I live with my wife, Fatima. Between us, we have four sons and six grandchildren. For a more detailed look, please consult my website.
