Make yourself at home, feel free to take a look around.

I’m Richard Dee, and I write all sorts of fiction, from Sci-fi and Steampunk to Cozy Crime, Fantasy and Psychological Thrillers. I’ve been writing forever and publishing since 2013.

I was never a writer, this is my story.
This (slightly edited) post first appeared on the much-missed Sue Vincent’s website. I was trying to express how I ended up writing novels, a way of occupying my time that nobody (including me) would have ever believed that I could do.

You learn that your sister’s dead, half a Galaxy away. Little do you know, your problems are only just beginning.
Max Walters is an ordinary guy. A surveyor, working on the edge of exploration. When he gets the call that nobody wants, he doesn’t hesitate.
How could he expect what happens next? Somehow, he’s come to the attention of some very bad people. Someone tries to kill him, in the one place he should have been safe. Then he finds himself being chased across the Galaxy.
What was his sister mixed up in? What’s his connection to it all?
It just goes to show, you never really know the truth about your family.
