GET TO KNOW Best-selling Author Peter James

Peter novels are now published in 38 languages. Four of his stories have been adapted into highly successful stage plays: the novella The Perfect Murder, Dead Simple, Not Dead Enough and The House On Cold Hill, which had its worldwide stage debut in January 2019. 

In addition to his work in the creative industries, Peter has been involved in a number of other enterprises. These include Cornelia James, his mother’s glove making company which has been by Royal Appointment to The Queen since 1978, and Pavilion Internet plc, one of the 7rst internet service providers in the UK, which Peter co-founded in 1993 and sold to Easynet in 1998. 

Peter pursues many interests in his relaxation time, including his extensive charity work. A self-confessed “petrol head”, Peter races classic cars at circuits around the country and has been a regular at the Goodwood Revival for several years. His enthusiasm remains undimmed after a surviving a horrendous high speed crash at Brands Hatch in 2013, although his publishers and his fans might prefer he took up a somewhat safer past-time – bowls, perhaps?
