Robert White was born in Leeds, Yorkshire in 1958. He hated school and spent more time playing truant than being educated.
One High School teacher did take him under his wing and sowed the seeds for his life-long interest in story-telling.This probably saved him from being institutionalised.
At 22 he joined the Police Service and spent 15 years patrolling some of the North of England’s toughest areas.
As his career developed his specialism became Tactical Firearms and he took part in over 200 live firearms scenarios.
In 1996 he left the service and moved to the U.A.E. where he worked with several retired members of HM Special Forces.
It was during the long hot Abu Dhabi summers he began to write his first novel.
His Crime/Action/Adventure novel ‘The Fix’ is available in the Kindle Library for download
His second novel, ‘DIRTY’ has now been added to Amazon.
This novel is set in 1981 during the harsh Thatcherite years and follows the exploits of a young Police Constable. It is a grim tale of villainous coppers and lawyers and is definitely not for the feint hearted.
Robert now lives in Lancashire with his wife and is writing his third novel ‘The Fire’
