I studied history at Lincoln College, Oxford, worked for a while in the glamorous world of pensions services, and now write full time. I live in York with my wife and our newborn son Owen. Under the name Edwin Thomas I have also written a series of historical adventures set in the Napoleonic wars. The first of these, The Blighted Cliffs, was runner-up for the CWA Debut Dagger award in 2001. At last count, my novels have been sold into dozen languages, from Portugal to Japan. If you'd like to contact me, I'd love to hear from you. You can e-mail me at tom_AT_tom-harper.co.uk (replace the _AT_ with @ in your e-mail program). E-mails with subjects that make reference to me or my books are more likely to be read than those that reference Cialis or Viagra.
