For over twenty years an idea bubbled and bounced around my head. It started with a bad dream. This dream was so vivid, it was a relief to wake up and realise that it wasn't real. After many attempts and false starts, I finally put pen to paper (or should that be finger to keys). The result was 'The West Leigh Murder'. This was the story of a murder investigation run by Detective Inspector George Finney, an experienced copper who has grafted his way to the top. He has little time for his pretentious boss, Chief Inspector McClintock, who wants to hog the media spotlight. Since then, DI Finney and his team have returned in three more stories - 'Mistakes', 'Burden' and 'Reputations'. All are available from Amazon.
