ABOUT ME

Robert White was born in Leeds, Yorkshire in 1958. He hated school and spent more time playing truant than being educated.
One high school teacher did take him under his wing and sowed the seeds for his life-long interest in story-telling.This probably saved him from being institutionalised.
At 22 he joined the police service and spent 15 years patrolling some of the north of England's toughest areas.
As his career developed his specialism became tactical firearms and he took part in over 200 live firearms scenarios.
In 1996 he left the service and moved to the U.A.E. where he worked with several retired members of HM special forces.
It was during the long hot Abu Dhabi summers he began to write his first novel.
His Crime/Thriller, 'The Fix' has received excellent 5***** reviews and has made the top 100 selling Action and Adventure Novels on Amazon UK. His second novel 'Dirty' is a dark and disturbing thriller set in 1980's Britain. This stormed into the top 10 Murder/Mystery/Hard-boiled genre within two weeks of publication.
He has recently published a series of short stories 'It's Grim up North.'
Robert now lives in Lancashire with his wife and Patterdale Terrier dog, 'Flash' .He is currently working on two further full length novels, 'The Fire,' a sequel to The Fix and 'Unrest' a stand alone murder mystery.
