PETER SMALLEY

Peter Smalley was born in Melbourne, Australia, and educated at
Geelong Grammar School.

He began his writing career in the advertising industry, and
moved on into radio, television, and film, and began writing
novels.

His first novel ‘A Warm Gun’ (Andre Deutsch, London)
won the John Llewellyn Rhys Memorial Prize.

His second novel was ‘Trove’ (Collins, London).

There followed a long series of eighteenth-century set
sea stories: the HMS Expedient series. There were nine
altogether:

‘HMS Expedient’ – ‘Port Royal’ – ‘Barbary Coast’ –
‘The Hawk’ – ‘The Gathering Storm’ – ‘The Pursuit’
(Century/Arrow)

‘The Marvellous Sea’ – ‘The Following Wind’ –
‘The Privateer’ (Amazon kdp)

The author has now begun an entirely new and different
series, the John Wallace spy series, beginning with
‘The Last Walk’, and followed by ‘The Green Wound’
on Amazon kdp.

He is also the author of stand alone novels ‘The Mistake’
and ‘Persverance’ (Amazon kdp).

He divides his time between London and Kent, and enjoys
reading, walking in the countryside, watching old movies,
and following sports on television, notably motor racing.

His wife Clytie – an artist and film director – died in 2017.
