I'm a Welsh-Irish-Englishman originally from South London but now living with my French-Spanish wife and decidedly European infant daughter in Burgos, a beautiful city in the north of Spain. Writing has always been my passion. It was my favourite half-an-hour a week at primary school, and I started on my first, truly abysmal book as a teenager. So it wasn't a difficult decision to study literature at university which led to an MA in Creative Writing. I grew up in a crime fiction family and had made a few clumsy attempts at writing one over the years before coming up with the idea for my detective Izzy Palmer. I've already released five Izzy novels and am starting on a 1920s mystery series with "Lord Edgington Investigates...". If you feel like telling me what you think about my detectives, my writing or the world at large, I'd love to hear from you, so feel free to get in touch at www.benedictbrown.net
