Author Biography

Alexander Thorpe grew up in the southern suburbs of Perth, Western Australia. Both an avid reader and a life-long insomniac, Alexander first began using novels from the Golden Age of crime fiction as a means of self-medication. Far from putting him to sleep, however, they soon ad him concoting plots of his own into the early hours. When not writing, Alexander can be found inflicting his indiosyncratic brand of English on international students, exploring new frontiers in miserable music or reading up on history, linguistics and environmental issues.
