He has previously published 4 supernatural mysteries: MASTER OF THE SCROLLS; THE MASTER OF PROPHECY; PORTRAIT OF SHADE & THE FIVE TORS. He is currently working on THE MASTER OF TIME. DEATH ON SWIFT WINGS is the first of his cosy murder mysteries featuring Gertrude Harrington, a spinster of 60 who runs the local Tea Room after leaving her post as Head Cook in one of the local Big Houses. A further 20-plus Gertrude Harrington Mysteries are planned. Benjamin is an avid reader and a huge fan of murder mysteries (books, films and TV), in particular the works of Agatha Christie, and the Father Brown and Midsomer Murders TV series. See less
