Description
Peter Bartram brings years of experience as a journalist to his Crampton of the
Chronicle crime mystery series – which features crime reporter Colin Crampton
in 1960s Brighton, England. Peter began his career on a UK local newspaper
before working as a journalist and newspaper editor in London and finally
becoming freelance. He has done most things in journalism from door-stepping
for quotes to writing serious editorials. He’s pursued stories in locations as
diverse as 700 feet down a coal mine and a courtier’s chambers at Buckingham
Palace.
Peter wrote
21 non-fiction books, including five ghost-written, in areas such as biography,
current affairs and how-to titles, before turning to crime – and penning Headline Murder (Roundfire Books),
the first novel in the Crampton series. There are now a growing number of
titles in the series. Peter’s diverse range of other work includes a radio
play, a magazine serial, and even a one-off cartoon strip.
