about: John Rhodes is the award winning author of the Breaking Point series set in the Battle of Britain, and of the Thomas Ford ‘cozy’ detective series. Rhodes graduated from Cambridge University where he studied history. His focus on World War II stems from his earliest memories—he was born while his father was serving at an RAF Fighter Command airfield, and he grew up in London, where, he says, the shells of bombed-out buildings ‘served as our adventure playgrounds.’He is currently working on a third book in the Breaking Point series, set in Malta in 1942, and another ‘whodunit’ murder case for Thomas Ford to solve.
