J J PatrickJames once did a good thing. He now lives a quiet life and is happy with his lot, which is all that really matters. He's been compelled to write ever since he can remember. J.J. Patrick - or JP to those who know that he's nothing but trouble - was bon in the New Forest and did most of his growing up in Derbyshire. He served as a police officer for ten years, resigning from New Scotland Yard having acted as a whistle-blower, kicking off a parliamentary inquiry into the manipulation of crime figures by the police. He received open praise at the highest levels, for his integrity. At a bit of a loose end - largely being seen as an unemployable risk to skeletons in closets everywhere - he opened a pub.
