Benedict Brown

Benedict Brown is a Welsh-Irish-Englishman originally from South London but now living with his French-Spanish wife and decidedly European infant daughter in Burgos, a beautiful city in the north of Spain.

Writing has always been his passion. It was his favourite half-an-hour a week at primary school, and he started on his 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.

He 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. A Corpse Called Bob is the first novel in what, he hopes, will be a long series.
