I live in SW France for the lifestyle after a career in a UK Police Force. I have six published novels, three
more in the pipeline and six plays that have been produced on stage. My screenplays portfolio contains
seven feature length scripts with one about to go into production.
I write mainly Historical Fiction but I do other genres too. I don't do cop stories, I had enough of the real
thing.

Connor – Author – Screenwriter - Playwright
Fran
grew up in the North of England among those ‘Dark Satanic Mills’
surrounded by the brooding Pennine moors that forged the Brontë
family of authors. While he would be the first to admit he doesn’t
quite reach such literary heights he does claim this area created his
love for the wild landscapes and romance of desolate places that
sometimes find their way into his work.
After
employment on the railways and in the dreaded Inland Revenue Tax
Office in London he moved south to join the police force where he
rose to the rank of Chief Inspector before retiring after
thirty-three years to move to South West France.
During
his time in the police, he has seen people at their best and worst.
He doesn’t write cop stories but draws on that experience to craft
his characters and situations to give them authenticity.
Here
in France among the ancient fortified villages once occupied by the
English in the Middle-Ages before being thrown out, he has found an
idyllic lifestyle with his wife, dog and chickens. The French seem to
have forgiven the Brits for the marauding antics of the Black Prince
and Henry V! He’s hoping Brexit will not upset the apple cart
again.
Fran’s
novels include Romance in ‘Sophia and the Fisherman’; Fantasy in
‘The Devil’s Bridge’; tongue in cheek Thriller in ‘Her Man in
Havana’; Drama in ‘Someone To Watch Over Me’; Historical
Romance in ‘Honourable Lies’; and the three series Political
Thrillers in the Artemis series, ‘Operation Hydra’, The Genesis
Project’ and ‘The Alcazar Code’. He also wrote the War Drama
‘Dunkirk’.

and the Highlander’ is Fran’s latest novel set in 1730s Boston,
Georgia and Jamaica. It’s an action-packed Romantic Thriller that
