about: My passion for writing historical fiction stems from childhood visits to the castles of Edward “Longshanks” in North Wales. I have a great love for mountaineering, sailing, music, reading and old movies. I am a full time independent writer. My novels include the bestselling ‘The Templar’s Apprentice’ and its three follow-ons which are set in the years up to, and including, the Third Crusade. ‘The Blood of Arthur’ tells of the young and turbulent life of Edward III. I also wrote a thriller, ‘Merriegold’, which is based upon MI5’s activities in post-WW1 Britain.‘Red Deserts, Black Gods’, my latest novel, is the first of a proposed series set in Ancient Egypt.
