By day, mild-mannered Andrew R. Williams is a chartered surveyor, but after twilight falls, he snatches up his pen and the writing takes control. The Fyfield Plantation is Andrew's second creation, and the third Arcadia's Children instalment pours out of Andrew on only the coldest and darkest of nights.

When he isn't writing or surveying, Andrew spends time with his wife Geraldine, staring up at the stars, and plotting eventual world domination. Don't let that calm demeanour and easy smile fool you, oh no.
