Lee Cooper

Lee Cooper was born in the seaside town of Banff, Aberdeenshire in 1984, and faced adversity from birth with a severe club foot. Growing up in Turriff. Learning to walk in a plaster and frame, he endured many operations up to the age of 17. Against all odds, he became an electrician, and in his late teens, took up kickboxing at the Satorishido club in Fraserbough. He won two Scottish titles and a Celtic title, competing for 5 years. A few years ago, life hit Lee hard, with his beloved granny and mum suffering from cancer at the same time. His mental health took a battering, like his kickboxing opponents in the boxing-rings. Yet, the determined fighter says he sometimes lacked the killer instinct. He found it with his blistering debut page-turner…Granite Grit, set in the seedy underworld of Scotland crime circuit.

His second novel, The Right Hand Man, which is tipped for many awards is flying off the self and has been described a criminal masterpiece which centers on a different charterer from Granite Grit but revolves around the same story. This has birthed a series of books titled, "Fighting's in the blood" and we only hope that there will be many of these editions created.
