Author Stephen LeatherStephen Leather is one of the UK's most successful international thriller writers and has also written for television. He has lived in Hong Kong, London, the U.S., Dublin, and Thailand.

Leather was born in 1956 in Manchester, England. He obtained his BSc in Biochemistry from Bath University in 1978. After graduating, he was offered a place on the Daily Mirror Graduate Training Scheme where he was trained as a journalist.
