Bill Jones started his working life as a journalist with various Northern provincial newspapers. In the early 80s he joined Granada Television in Manchester where he worked on literally hundreds of documentaries for the BBC, ITV, Channel 4 and many others – including an award-winning film about the contents of Frank Sinatra”s coffin – before embarking on a writing career after almost three decades in broadcasting. His first book – The Ghost Runner – won him The Times Best New Writer in the 2012 British Sports Book Awards. It was also shortlisted for the William Hill award. Born in Bridlington, the author currently lives in Ampleforth, North Yorkshire, where – despite a mountain of evidence to the contrary – he insists that his ancestry is Welsh.
