Autor

Robert Durrant is a native Scot living in Edinburgh the capital of Scotland.

His interests are broad and includes his time spent writing fiction novels. A process that, by his own admission, can be quite challenging but also, thankfully, hugely rewarding.

This is why he wrote his first novel 'The Wake Crasher', a humorous look at the darker side of life through the eyes of young adults struggling to make ends meet in a world where austerity is the catchphrase of the decade.

Robert has a stressful job managing a large turnover and operating to tight schedules, meaning he understands the need for working to fixed dates. This has helped him to ensure he not only completed his first novel, but now has a second novel ready for publication. No doubt he has drawn on his current and previous experience to fuel the material for his fiction novels, perhaps witnessing, as a police officer, a few events the public would not be privy to.

So if you enjoy 'The Wake Crasher' then be sure to look out for his second novel, a thriller called "The Reluctant Killer", the first in a planned series.
