He now lives with his wife Katy on the edge of the Derbyshire Peak District. Although a graduate of Cambridge University, Miles spent many years working at Oxford University, where he was responsible at different times for the university’s Computing Teaching Centre and its audiovisual and television services. That has never stopped him supporting Cambridge in the Boat Race, and all other Oxbridge competitive events, however! Miles has written a number of successful text-books on computer programming as well as writing, presenting and directing television programmes on topics ranging from computers to 16th century warships. He was also privileged to spend a year in Budapest towards the end of the ‘socialist era’ which led to an ongoing love for both that beautiful city and the country of which it is the capital. That love is reflected in the title of his first novel, ‘The Budapest Betrayal’, which, although mainly set in England, has several key scenes set in that beautiful city.The Budapest Betrayal, which introduces Detective Sergeant Kathryn Hammond, is now available from Smashwords and other ebook stores.
