R.N. Morris

Writing as R.N. Morris, I'm the author of a series of historical crime novels set in St Petersburg and featuring Porfiry Petrovich, the detective from Dostoevsky's great novel Crime and Punishment: A Gentle Axe (2007), A Vengeful Longing (2008), A Razor Wrapped in Silk (2010) and The Cleansing Flames. As Roger Morris I wrote the contemporary thriller Taking Comfort (2006).
