Dave Kendrick lives in Bournemouth with his wife Cathy, and numerous foreign language students who are blithely unaware that they're sharing the same roof with a famous author. Come to that, so is his wife. He is currently studying part-time for an MA in Creative Writing with Manchester Metropolitan University. When he isn't writing Dave enjoys camping, surfing and the great outdoors. Reef is his second novel, but the first to make it off of his hard drive.
