Phil Lecomber was born in 1965 in Slade Green, on the outskirts of South East London - just a few hundred yards from the muddy swirl of the Thames. Although he now lives in the beautiful West Country city of Bath, most of his working life has been spent in and around the capital in a variety of occupations. He has worked as a musician in the city's clubs, pubs and dives; as a steel-fixer helping to build the towering edifices of the square mile (and also working on some of the city's iconic landmarks, such as Tower Bridge); as a designer of stained-glass windows; and - for the last quarter of a century - as the director of a small company in Mayfair specializing in the electronic security of some of the world's finest works of art. All of which, of course, has provided wonderful material for a novelist's inspiration. Always an avid reader, a chance encounter as a teenager with a Gerald Kersh short story led to a fascination with the 'Morbid Age' - the years between the wars. The world that Phil has created for the George Harley Mysteries is the result of the consumption and distillation of myriad contemporary novels, films, historical accounts, biographies and slang dictionaries of the 1930s - with a nod here and there to some of the real-life colourful characters that he's had the pleasure of rubbing shoulders with over the years.
