Bloodhound Books Welcome Paul Spencer

Bloodhound are thrilled to have Paul Spencer joining us and we look forward to releasing his brilliant mystery thriller next May!

Paul Spencer was born in London, but grew up in Australia, and has traveled extensively ever since. He lived in the United States for many years, where he became a lawyer. His experience in criminal and anti-discrimination law exposed him to the plight of people on the fringes of modern society, and inspired him to write Black Mark, his first novel. Black Mark was shortlisted for the Daphne du Maurier Award for Excellence in Mystery/Suspense. In addition, Paul’s short fiction has been published in several journals, and longlisted for the Crime Writers’ Association Margery Allingham Short Mystery prize and the Uncharted Magazine Short Story Prize. His poetry was published in the anthology East of the Sunrise.

Besides writing, Paul enjoys reading Tartan Noir, making sausages, and messing around with cars. He lives in Spain with his wife, a lazy old Labrador, and an obnoxious cat.
