ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Andy Maslen was born in Nottingham, in the UK, home of legendary bowman Robin Hood. Although he once won a medal for archery, he has never been locked up by the sheriff.
Andy has worked in a record shop, as a barman, as a door-to-door DIY products salesman and a cook in an Italian restaurant. He eventually landed a job in marketing, writing mailshots to sell business management reports. He spent 10 years in the corporate world before launching a business writing agency, Sunfish, where he writes for clients including The Economist, Christie’s and World Vision.
Andy completed the first draft of his first novel – Trigger Point – in six weeks, after deciding to embrace his destiny and “be” a writer. He has also published five works of non-fiction, on copywriting and freelancing, with Marshall Cavendish and Kogan Page.
He lives in Wiltshire, with his wife, two sons and a whippet named Merlin.
