Peter Edington is a Scottish-born author and lifelong sailor. After years working in law and education, he swapped courtrooms for the open sea, building his own yacht and sailing across the Atlantic and Caribbean and on to Australia.

His thrillers blend seafaring realism with human drama, drawing on his legal background and his passion for adventure. Peter’s writing has been featured in national newspapers and on BBC broadcasts. He now lives in Australia, still writing and still sailing whenever he can.
