About the Author
After studying English at University, I worked in consultancy and banking for a number of years. I now live in Wiltshire, England, with my wife and children. I wanted to record my memories to share with others before they became too vague and distant, in a form that will entertain and thrill the reader. Chasing the Bullet is my first novel. The novel ‘maintains a fantastically fun rate of speed against the background of the (financial) collapse.’ Freeman and his ‘on-again, off-again girlfriend,’ Anne-Sophie ‘indulge in some classic thriller cat-and-mouse games, while good wine, decent conversation and some typically vapid intimate scenes unfold.’ – Kirkus Reviews
