Luke Delaney

Luke Delaney is a British author who has made a name for himself in the realm of crime fiction novels. Born in the late 1980s, Delaney's professional background is as intriguing as his fictional works. He began his career in law enforcement as a member of the Metropolitan Police Service (MPS), where he gained invaluable experience in investigating a wide range of criminal activities.

Delaney's first posting with the MPS was to a particularly notorious area in South East London, an inner city district known for its high levels of crime and extreme violence. This initial assignment provided him with a unique perspective on the harsh realities of urban life and the challenges faced by law enforcement officers in such difficult environments.

After some time in this challenging role, Delaney transitioned to the Criminal Investigation Department (CID), where he delved even deeper into the world of criminal investigations. During his tenure with the CID, Delaney investigated a diverse array of murders, from those committed by fledgling serial killers to gangland assassinations. These experiences not only honed his investigative skills but also fueled his creativity as a writer, allowing him to craft authentic and gripping crime fiction narratives.

Among Delaney's most popular works is the DI Sean Corrigan series, which draws heavily from his own experiences in law enforcement. The series features a protagonist who, like Delaney, has a deep understanding of the psychological complexities of both criminals and victims, making for a compelling and immersive reading experience. Delaney's unique background and storytelling abilities have earned him a well-deserved reputation as a master of the crime fiction genre.
