James Keegan

James Keegan spent 20 years as a frontline police officer and served in various law enforcement units ranging from plain-clothes investigations to duties as a tactical response operative. His interest in writing began at a young age when he would spend school vacations tapping out Cold War spy thrillers on his grandmother's manual typewriter. He has tertiary qualifications in emergency management, policing and international relations.

James believes in writing what you know and prides himself on producing authentic crime fiction with relatable, well-rounded characters.

One of his main passions and goals is the safety and protection of children, particularly against human traffickers and other such predators. The themes and plot of James' novel THE CUMAL FILES deal with the international problem of child sex-trafficking, and he hopes that the book will in some way bring much needed attention to the terrible crimes being committed against children on a daily basis.

Book 2 in the Dan Porter series, ORIENTAL ILLUSIONS, was released on the 1st August, 2020.
