Based in Belfast, Northern Ireland, Robert Burton spent his formative years in Oxhill, where he worked on farms and in the local pub, The Peacock. After a long career in the Motor Trade and later with A.M. Best in London, he discovered a passion for writing when his son left for university. Drawing inspiration from his love of history and memories of his childhood, he began to craft stories set in the places that shaped him. When he’s not writing, Robert enjoys walking his dog along the Lagan Valley, tinkering in the garden, and indulging his love for cricket, golf, and live sports.
