VAUGHN ENTWISTLE grew up in Northern England. He is the author of The Paranormal Casebooks of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle series. In the early nineties he moved to Seattle to work as a writer, and in his spare time he ran a successful gargoyle-sculpting company for ten years. He often writes with one cat on his lap, a Brittany lying across his feet, and one or more cats sauntering across the keyboard. He recently moved back to England.
