ⓘ About Peter Ritchie

Peter Ritchie was a published author of fiction. He sadly passed away in December 2021. Now an author of crime fiction, Ritchie used to work in the crime solving field in real life. He has retired as a senior police officer. Originally, he worked as a trawler man but quit that profession so that he could become a policeman. He has fused the authenticity from working in murder squads, CID, Europol, and Serious and Regional Crime Squads into his novels. This gives them an air of reality that few other story tellers are able to channel. The cases that he has worked are integrated in some way with his crime stories, particularly his Detective Grace Macallan novels.
