He lives in Chichester, England. |

"Death through the centuries takes center stage in SKELETON HILL, but it does so with the customary wit and gentle humor that mystery lovers have come to expect from the British master of the genre, Peter Lovesey."
- Marilyn Stasio

"Besides Lovesey's solid plotting, always a feature of his work, this one is made all the more absorbing by the wealth of both historical and historical-reenactment detail."
