ⓘ About Will Hill

Author Will Hill spends most of his time in California but grew up around the North East of England, moving from Skegness over to Gateshead to Tynemouth. The area is steeped in vampire mythology, which was irresistible to the young Will. He was able to turn this fascination into a highly accomplished debut novel. Action hungry lovers of adventure and horror are sure to enjoy it. Before he quit his day job to write full time, Will worked as a bookseller, a door-to-door charity worker, and a bartender. He is scared of spiders and a big fan of cats. As a writer, he spends long stretches playing games on his computer, staring out of windows, Tweeting, checking his email, and generally coming up with new and unusual ways to avoid typing anything.
