Autorenporträt
Peter Malin was born and raised in Staffordshire, England. Attending a Marist grammar school, he trained in dentistry at Bristol, qualifying in the early Seventies. He returned to practice in his home town before moving to Canterbury. In 1990 he emigrated to Melbourne, Australia with his wife and six children, settling in Lilydale where he practised for thirty years. He still works because of his love for dentistry and his loyal patients, and has fulfilled a dream of writing a novel that encompasses his great passions and principles.
