Tower Bridge, London It is two in the morning, and a young student is seen diving off the bridge into the dark, icy waters below. When his body is recovered from the river, it is found to contain high levels of the drug Ecstasy. The dead student shared a house with the niece of investigative newspaper reporter Jack Richardson, who decides to retrace the student’s last few days to establish the true story behind his death. However, as Jack follows this trail, he encounters dark forces, and a perilous outcome for both himself and his niece…
Philip Cox was born and raised in the UK seaside city of Southend on Sea, which lies forty miles east of London.
After graduating from High School, he began a career in UK Banking and Financial Services, and spent the next decades working his way through the ranks, finally becoming a Branch Manager of a major UK bank.
Philip left banking after the birth of his first child to be a stay-at-home father, and it was during this time that, in between changing diapers/nappies, he began to write his first novel, ‘After the Rain’.
Now having written sixteen books, he is based in the county of Hertfordshire, some twenty miles north of London, with his wife and two daughters.
During his spare time (what spare time there is between school runs and writing!), Philip enjoys indulging his interest in Model Railroading/Railways.
He is tall and slim, has a few grey hairs, and wishes he could get to the gym more often.
