About the author
Jack Steele is the author of Loose Cannon, the first book in the Detective Joe Stone crime thriller series. Listings on Goodreads, Fantastic Fiction, and Audible also connect the name with other thriller titles, suggesting an ongoing focus on crime and suspense fiction.
A brief author note published with Loose Cannon says he was born in Hackney, London, grew up on the Bannister House estate in Homerton, later lived in Nottinghamshire, and worked full-time in the printing industry while writing in his spare time. Because detailed independent biographical sources are limited, it is best to treat those personal details as self-reported.
What comes through most clearly is the tone of the work: contemporary crime stories rooted in London, with detectives, gangland pressure, and high-stakes investigations at the center.
