Biography
I was born and brought up in historic Stamford in England, but now live near even more historic Oxford. I have a lovely wife, two lovely grown-up children and spouses, two lovely grandchildren, and four lovely step-grandchildren (such is the way of modern life).
I was a journalist for a chunk of my adult life – from junior reporter to editor – until I got really brassed off with working for somebody else and became a freelance editor/writer.
A funny thing happened when I reached 30-ish. I got interested in gardening. I so impressed myself designing my blank-canvas garden that I took a course, and launched myself as a garden designer.
But the writing bug was still itching; it always will. So here we are ... I spend my time writing fiction and doing some designing/landscaping (www.frgardendesign.co.uk).

Norm is Oxford's new bright crimefighter. But Morse he ain't. Norman Philip Ducker is far from the norm. Unlike the late, lamented Chief Inspector Morse, he uses the buses, drinks lager, and listens to Springsteen. He does like crosswords, though. And cosmology, science, and most sports. But he can’t get his head round Doris Lessing. Oh … and he’s not a policeman. He works for Crimestoppers.
