Profile: David Gee

About This Author

Originally earmarked for the Methodist Mission Field, I soon discovered that ‘the missionary position’ didn’t suit me. A post-university career in telecommunications took me to the Middle East where I moonlighted as a journalist and socialized heavily with the ‘natives’ and with stewardesses from one of the local airlines, which came in handy when I started writing SHAIKH-DOWN. I now live a few miles outside Brighton in southeast England with greyhound George and lurcher Mildred, two rescue-centre dogs. In 2012 I published (via Troubador) my second novel THE DROPOUT. 19-year-old Paul, desperate to find a girlfriend, has to learn how to cope with unwelcome advances from gay admirers. Extracts from THE DROPOUT and two more (unpublished) novels can be viewed on my website www.davidgeebooks.com
