ⓘ About Philip Gwynne Jones

Philip Gwynne Jones is a renowned author of mystery, suspense, and thriller novels hailing from Wales. He is particularly famous for writing The Venice series. Philip has also written a nonfiction book, which is also set in Venice, just like all his fiction novels. Philip moved to Venice, Italy in 1994 and has since lived and worked there. His relocation to Venice was for a job in Frascati for a space agency, but he realized that it was quite less exciting and interesting than he had hoped. Nevertheless, Philip spent around 20 years working in the IT industry. When he realized that the field did not suit him, he decided to go for a change. Now, he works as a translator, teacher, and writer. Philip is happily married and lives with his wife named Caroline in Venice.
