I am an award-winning writer of crime fiction, and my books and short stories have been translated into over ten languages. I believe that a good novel should tell a gripping story, have a satisfactory ending and be peopled by characters who are fully-developed and believable.

Although I am perhaps best known for my novels set in and around my home city of Sheffield, I have also written a number of other novels, short stories and non-fiction/academic books.
