About the author
Born and educated in London, Peter Morse worked for Rolls-Royce plc as a mechanical engineer for 34 years and became a specialist in subsonic, air-breathing missile propulsion systems.
After retiring before the turn of the century, he spent time consulting for HM Government and later began writing fiction. SilverWood Books describes him as the author of novels including An Unknown Soldier and Random Consequences.
That unusual path from engineering to novel writing gives his work a grounded, thoughtful feel, especially when he draws on history and real-world systems. I couldn't confirm more detailed biographical information from stronger public sources, so this overview sticks to the basics that were clearly available.
