Gordon was born in Edinburgh, Scotland, but has lived much of his life in London and the home counties. 

Gordon never had any intention or desire to be a writer. After a strange dream, he got out of bed in the very early hours of the morning, and quickly typed out what he could remember. Some 4000 words later, he decided he’d have a go at writing a book. The book eventually morphed into ‘The Cheat Killers,’ which was quickly followed by ‘Who Is The Tigerman?’ and The Twist of a Sinner.

The fourth in the Harry Black series, ‘Deadly Room Service’ is now available.
