Values
I will write books that go deeper than usual:
These books will often be thrillers.
I write about complex, real characters.
The books often feature police officers. Police officers are complicated because life is complicated.
Evil exists, but there’s beauty and goodness too.
Right and wrong, good and evil, the two sides fight constantly.
Tyranny comes in many shapes.
We aim for dignity, but we’re only human.
Sometimes we need heroism, but we’re only human and sometimes we’re scared.
Sin is real and corrodes.
The truth sets you free.
Justice will be done.
People can be redeemed.
Sometimes only violence works, but forgiveness beats vengeance.
We have compassion for the underdog, the weak and the vulnerable.
We have compassion for the people who go wrong as well as for their victims.
Children are precious, the fountain of new life, and we must protect them.
We have fun, too. We look for humour, and we love people who swagger a little.
We sense a greater world beyond this one.
I’m in this for the long term. I aim to release at least one new book per year until 2035.
