About the author

I have been writing for longer than I care to remember, both fiction and non fiction, and started out by writing business articles and columns.

The reason I write is because I enjoy it. It is as simple as that. If other people happen to enjoy the results then that is a huge buzz, and a great encouragement to write some more!!

At the moment I am concentrating on my Chester based detective, Inspector Walter Darriteau, (see The Murder Diaries and The Sound of Sirens) and my philandering man, Gringo Greene - (see The Life and Loves of Gringo Greene) though the truth is that, like many other writers, I always have several projects under way at any one time.

Thank you for visiting my page and I hope you like at least some of my stuff.

Have fun,

David C.

Apart from the continued over-reliance on the words 'grin', 'grinned' and 'grinning', I liked this book. The flipping between the past case and the present kept the book interesting. I'm very happy to move onto the next one, but still wondering if the villain from a couple of books ago is going to return though!

This is a great series. A gritty realistic police procedural. Walter is unable to forget a case from 30 years ago, where two warring crime families were trying to out manoeuvre the other. There is also a current case involving a shadowy secret society and several unsolved deaths.
