I was born in Hartlepool, England and now live in Bydgoszcz, Poland. I’ve worked in a second-hand record shop and a toy shop. I once had a job on a government scheme updating ordnace survey maps. It wasn’t as glamourous as it sounds. I’ve been TEFL teaching for more than a decade, it seems.
My books include Last Year’s Man, Man of the World, Gumshoe Blues, and Guns Of Brixton.
Oh, and there are a few other tasty snacks that you can find here.
My writing has been translated into Italian, Polish, Finnish, German and Slovene. Which is nice.
I’ve had stories published in various magazines and anthologies, including The Mammoth Book Of Best British Crime 8, 10 and 11.
I’m also irresponsible for Punk Noir Magazine.
You can usually find me on Twitter and Facebook etc
