Simon Kernick

Author of Relentless...

Simon Kernick is in his forties, lives near London and has two young children. The intricate research he carries out prior to writing his novels is what makes them so authentic.

Simon's extensive list of contacts in the police force has been built up over more than a decade. It includes long-serving officers in Special Branch, the National Crime Squad (now SOCA), and the Anti-Terrorist Branch, all of whom have plenty of tales to tell.
