ABOUT BRIAN
FULTON

Brian Fulton was born on 5th June 1977 in Dungannon, Northern Ireland, though his childhood took him across the Atlantic. He spent his early years in Thunder Bay, Canada, before returning to Cookstown, then back to London, Ontario until the age of 17. That transatlantic upbringing gave him a perspective that sits slightly outside any single tradition — which, as it turns out, is exactly where the best investigative writers tend to live.

After school he moved through an eclectic range of careers: cabinet and furniture making, officer training with the British Army, welding, and eventually landing in Computer Science education at college and university level. "At that level, the students actually want to be there," he says. "That makes all the difference."

But it was eight years of deep-field interviews — with ex-army personnel, former terrorists, and individuals who operate in the grey areas between government, crime and intelligence — that gave Brian the raw material for his novels. Operation REVERT and Operation REDLINE are political thrillers grounded in real conversations, real operations, and real people. Which parts are true? He's not saying.

He lives in the Leeds area of England with his wife Louise and their two sons, Ethan and Christian. When he's not writing or teaching, you'll find him metal detecting in remote fields, lifting weights, or thinking about what to modify next on his car. Northern Ireland remains home in his head.
