Peter Grainger is the 'creator of the greatest fictional sleuth you've probably never heard of' (FT magazine). A former sixth-form English teacher, Peter is the author of 23 self-published novels, 19 of which are now scheduled for release by major British and North American publishers. Peter lives with his wife, sometimes a grandson and a dog in a cottage in the Cambridgeshire fens. He travels as often as possible to the Norfolk coast he once called home.
Once I was ensconced in Kings Lake, in the company of Smith and his team, I didn’t want to leave … What sets Grainger’s books apart from the typical police procedural is the fully realised characters, who appear to live in a gentler world, on a time continuum that makes sense, progressing and evolving from book to book. * Financial Times * The books are comforting, the writing is subtle and the plots are gripping. * The Times * A terrific police procedural series, up there with Bosch, Morse, Pascoe and Dalziel. * Reader review * An excellent, intelligent and believable crime series which only gets better as the characters develop. * Reader review * This series is a delightful read … I am so looking forward to reading them all! * Reader review *
