Simon Kernick

Simon Kernick (born 1966 in Slough, Berkshire) is a British crime writer now living in Oxfordshire and has two daughters. [ [http://www.chrishigh.com/harrogate/featuredwriters/simon_kernick.htm Simon Kernick - Biography ] ] Whilst he was a student his jobs included fruitpicker and christmas-tree uprooter. He graduated from Brighton Polytechnic in 1991 with a degree in humanities. [ [http://www.xs4all.nl/~embden11/Engels3/kernick.htm Simon Kernick ] ] . Kernick had a passion for crime fiction writing from a young age and produced many short stories during his time at polytechnic. After graduating Kernick joined MMT Computing in London in early 1992, where a relative was the Chairman and Managing Director. Kernick was a key member of the sales team and was very highly regarded. However, he left the company after 4 years in the hope of trying to secure a publishing deal. Despite interest from a number of publishers Kernick was unable to secure a deal, so he joined the sales force of the specialist IT and Business Consultancy Metaskil plc in Aldermaston, Berkshire in 1998 where he remained until he secured his first book deal in September 2001. His novel "Relentless" was recommended on Richard & Judy's Summer book club 2007. It was the 8th best-selling paperback, and the best-selling thriller in the UK in the same year.
