About the author

Biographies can be an absolute drag, so I won’t bore anyone with a long life story.

I was born in Brasilia, Brazil where I spent my childhood and teenage years. After graduating from high school, I moved to the USA where I studied psychology with specialization in criminal behaviour. During my University years I held a variety of odd jobs, ranging from flipping burgers to being part of an all male exotic dancing group.

I worked as a criminal psychologist for several years before moving to Los Angeles, where I swapped the suits and briefcases for ripped jeans, bandanas and an electric guitar. After a spell playing for several well known glam rock bands, I decided to try my luck in London, where I was fortunate enough to have played for a number of famous artists. I toured the world several times as a professional musician.

A few years ago I gave it all up to become a full time writer.

Isn’t it wonderful when a chance purchase leaves you finding a new favourite author? Such is what happened with my purchase of my first Chris Carter novel. I went in not expecting all that much (I had picked up the book because it was in an offer, nothing more) only to be blown away by the results.

Carter always creates a wonderful story. With Robert Hunter as his main character, Carter secured a place on my favourite author list only to remind me with each new book how gripping his stories are with the countless twists and turns.

I tried to avoid starting yet another detective series but succumbed after so many recommendations re this author. It didn't disappoint. Excellent read, never boring . Now the big question, will I read the next in the series?
