I was born in New Zealand and began my journalism career on The New Zealand Herald.
I was a foreign correspondent in Asia for 30 years, which included fifteen years reporting for The New York Times with Hong Kong as my base.
I had earlier been a Reuters correspondent, working for the agency in Japan, Korea, Hong Kong, Malaysia and Indonesia.
I began writing fiction when I was a young journalist in Australia and had two short stories published.
My first success with a novel was The Peking Payoff, which was published in hard cover in 1975 by Macmillan Inc in New York and in paperback by Hamlyn. Hamlyn subsequently published The Seizing Of Singapore, Deadline In Jakarta and An H-Bomb For Alice.
In 1988, I self-published Reunion, also a novel.
