Tom Palmer is a football fan and a writer. He never did well at school. But once he got into reading about football - in newspapers, magazines and books - he decided he wanted to be a football writer more than anything. As well as the Football Detective series, he is the author of the forthcoming Boys United series, also for Puffin Books.

Tom lives in a Yorkshire town called Todmorden with his wife and daughter. The best stadium he's visited is Real Madrid's Santiago Bernabeau.
