Hi; My name is Keith Hoare and live in Lancashire. I published my first book in 2009 and have since gone on to write thirty books. My most popular books are international crime.

The purpose in writing those stories, was to take the reader on a journey into a dangerous underworld which exists in every town and city. The scenarios are all based on careful research giving a real insight into this complex world where even reality can often sound fictional.

Readers looking for something different, I have, in addition, written romance, true romance, paranormal, fantasy and the emotional world of animal rights. All are carefully researched to add a touch of realism to the way the characters live their lives, be it Tracy in the fantasy world of 'Plagarma' up against the mythical, but the well known creature called 'Barguest' or the real life world of Kelly on a personal journey to become a supermodel in 'Catwalk Supermodel'.

For all of us, time is precious, whether we're working or relaxing. I hope you enjoy my work and I truly believe my readers feel the time spent in my characters' worlds was enjoyable and not wasted.

Are you a reader on the go? If so, I've five titles available as audio books. 'Nigerian Connection' was my first audio title and has now been joined by 'Russian Connection', 'Italian Connection' and 'Romanian Connection'. All unabridged and offering up to fifteen hours of audio entertainment. Corrupt Money has since been added.

I've been asked many times, with so many titles featuring Karen Harris, just where they sit in the various series. I have included a list below of titles that are a part of a series. While title 1 and 2 is essential reading to understand where Karen came from, all the other titles are stand alone and can be read out of sequence. Even so her life is a progression and at times what happens in a title can be a direct result of something from her past.
