Paul was born in London and got a scholarship to attend Alleyns School in Dulwich. He graduated from Exeter University with a degree in Economics and went into marketing. After seven years working for an advertising agency, he set up a market research agency. Five years later, its turnover had grown to £3m and he sold it to a communications group. He had to work a five-year contract as part of the sale deal and then, when that was over, he semi retired to devote more time to writing.
The nine books in his Shannon series focus on frauds which Nick Shannon uncovers and there is always a corpse along the way . His Mercenary series (Mercenary, Killer in Black, One Bullet Too Many, No Easy Way Out and The Ivory War) are thrillers and feature a group of aging mercenaries who get together for one final job (and then another etc.). He has a standalone thriller, Catalyst, based on the machinations of the petrochemicals industry. Another standalone thriller, Messiah, is a feel-good story for those who despair of the world today and crave an uplift. His current series features a feisty PI called Casey Jones. The two published already are Casey Jones and the Case of the Prodigal Son and Casey Jones and the Ghost of a Chance. He is working on the third in that series, Casey Jones and the Harlequin Case.
In his spare time, Paul is a keen bridge player and has achieved the rank of Premier Tournament Master. Paul also works as a ‘script doctor’, reading and reporting on novels by unpublished authors. He lives in rural Essex with his wife.
