Autorenporträt
Peter Tickler writes crime novels set in and around the city of Oxford. He has been praised for the authenticity of his Oxford ('a wonderful gift of creating geographically factual settings for his fictional characters' - Oxford Times) as well as the pace of his stories ('deliciously thrilling and wildly unpredictable' - Oxford Today). His main protagonists are DI Susan Holden, a no-holds-barred Detective Inspector with an anger-management problem, and Doug Mullen, a private eye who can't say 'No' to any damsel (or dog) in distress. Peter writes a regular column for Mystery People, has two short films under his belt and gives talks at festivals, libraries, U3As, Women's Institutes and even in Her Majesty's Prisons.
