About the author

Peter Clover is an international, best selling children’s author with over 70 titles in print across UK, USA, Germany, France and the Commonwealth. Peter originally hails from Islington, North London with a colourful career in advertising as a storyboard artist. His overwhelming passion for writing eventually inspired him to pen a rhyming picture book, which led to his success across the genre of children’s literature from early reader to M/G, published by all mainstream publishing houses including Puffin, Hodder, Macmillan, Scholastic, Transworld, Oxford University Press, A&C Black and Barrington Stoke.

Peter met his husband back in the Jurassic Age, left London, and bought a Georgian hotel which they ran together for fifteen years, with Peter as whirling resident chef, before moving lock stock and typewriter to Spain where they built a house, got married, and plan to live happily ever after!

Now a permanent fixture in Mallorca, Peter writes a regular ‘lifestyle’ column for an English newspaper along with the occasional article for glossy travel magazines.

As an exhibited artist, Peter still paints on occasion, yet writing remains his principle passion. RETURN TO LYNDON GATE is his first adult novel - an idea, he says, which has been haunting him for over 20 years. Currently working on his Mallorcan Memoirs, LGBTQ children’s novels and a children’s cook book.
