Daryl Fraser was born and raised in Lowestoft. After leaving school aged fifteen, he returned to education and studied literature and history before working as a local government officer, publicist, photographer and a practising hypnotherapist until he discovered a passion for writing.

Daryl has travelled widely, danced a lot of salsa, and currently performs improvisation comedy. He lives in Norwich with his wife, Jo, a move that has given him a fresh perspective on his birthplace. But he can't stay away from the sea for long, and is a frequent visitor to Lowestoft
