In his fifties, he decided to give up work, moving back to Scotland (with no income) to write novels and symphonies.
Paper Chase is his first novel, but he feels that the second will be (even?) better. It involves several of the same characters and is now nearing completion.
In his earlier career, Hugh held management positions in local and central government, large commercial organisations, the largest of charities, a law firm, the police and the Defence Science & Technology Laboratory at Porton Down.
A keen climber and Alpine mountaineer, he has enjoyed expeditions to the Andes, as well as numerous trips to the European Alps, and has been a member of the Alpine Club for many years.
