About

Born in NorthernIreland at the same time Johnny Mathis held the UK number one chart with When a Child is Born (a coincidence, weassure you), Peter was first published at the age of 17 in the Simon &Schuster anthology Children of theTroubles, edited by Laurel Holliday, and followed in quick succession bynumerous other publications. The CamelTrail is his first novel.

Peter moved from Ireland to Londonin 1997 and, in 2010, fell out of the rat race for a quieter life in Yorkshire. He lives and works from home and is currentlyworking on his second novel.
