Alex Smith wrote his first book when he was six, and even though it wasn’t very good it did have monsters in it. It was a sign of things to come, as he spent most of his twenties and thirties writing horror books for children and teenagers under his full name, Alexander Gordon Smith, including the award-winning series Escape from Furnace. It was only after he had his three daughters that he thought about writing a series of thrillers about a detective with young children, and DCI Robbie Kett was born. The series includes Paper Girls, Bad Dog, Three Little Pigs, Whip Crack, Run Rabbit Run, Stone Cold Dead, Every Mother's Son, Sweet Briar Rose, Jaw Breaker, Knock Knock, King Rat, Knuckle Bones, Lucky Number Seven, Unholy Saints, Truly Madly Deadly, Every Last Devil, Red Line, Cold Iron Kills, Tin Soldiers, and Until Death Smith. Smith lives in Norwich with his family, where he spend half of his time writing and the other half trying to keep up with his three girls. Get in touch with him at AlexSmithBooks.com.
