Douglas John Knox

Douglas John Knox is best known for his action packed mystery thrillers, including the DCI Max Cornell series. Mostly set in the North East of England, but his tales can take you off to the capital and overseas.

Although blessed with a colourful imagination, Douglas didn’t start writing fiction until he retired from the Civil Service. It was then, with a compulsion to record his creations, instead of just dreaming them, that he was stimulated to write.

When not writing, Douglas enjoys fly fishing and tying his own flies, gardening, which includes tending a large allotment and painting, both in watercolours and oils.

Also known to have the occasional glass of red wine.
