Hammond Innes was born in Sussex, England in 1913, he served in the British army and was awarded the CBE. His first novel was called The Doppleganger and was published by Herbert Jenkins in 1936. This novel set the tone and he grew to become one of the country's most respected suspense-thriller writers. His work has a style of it's own and remains impressive and fresh to this day. As well as fiction he also wrote some non-fiction, a couple of screenplays and some juvenile literature, some of which appeared under the pseudonym of Ralph Hammond. The early mystery titles benefitted from some impressive dust jacket artwork which continues to add to their appeal. |
