Dan Wheatcroft

Goodreads Author


Born
The United Kingdom
Genre

Member Since
March 2018


A former member of a north of England, gritty, metropolitan police force, the author has thirty years experience of day to day policing.

Breathless pursuits on foot, car chases, riots, firearms incidents, bomb searches, murder investigations, excessive tea drinking and hours of boredom were complimented by his knowledge of hiding in bushes and dodging wayward tanks, acquired in another life as a Military Policeman.

A recent diagnosis of ‘high functioning Aspergers’ has helped explain an almost obsessive interest in the Kennedy assassinations and lack of it in sport, big trucks, car parts in general and social events.

He lives on a small hill, in Romania, with his wife, three cuddly toys and Lily the dog. Dan Wheatcroft is a pseudonym.

Mojave Sun by Glenn Trust
"5* A tense page turner.

Having recently enjoyed and finished Blue Water Horizon, I thought I'd try another of Glenn Trust's books. While both are thrillers, Blue Water Horizon is lighter, Mojave Sun includes corruption and perversive behaviour.

Nicely written with believable characters.

Private Lives by Emily  Edwards
"2* Not for me DNF

Filled with smug, bigoted and thoroughly awful people, I struggled to like anyone. There weren't even enough likeable characters to balance the vindictive scaremongers.

According to other readers, the book improved dramatically, proba" Read more of this review »
