James Marinero

I have at various times been a chef, a milkman, maths lecturer, private tutor, IT consultant and project manager, and a lifelong sailor; I'm now achieving a lifelong ambition to live on my boat and write novels.

During my careers I have worked in the Middle East, Russia, Scandinavia, the US, Kazakhstan and much of Europe. I have sailed to many of the Atlantic Islands, Brazil, the Mediterranean and North Africa in my own boat.

My own reading interests are built on having read all the Alistair Maclean, Hammond Innes, Len Deighton, Mickey Spillane and Helen MacInnes (that's a clever name she chose) books when I was a teenager. Now, I love to read John Le Carré, James Lee Burke and Lee Child (isn't Jack Reacher the best hard guy around)?

Besides writing novels on my own account, I do undertake ghost writing commissions - principally biographies.
