Scotland's Peter Kerr became established as a bestselling author via his award-winning 'Snowball Oranges' series of narrative travelogues. The books recount his family's often hilarious experiences while attempting to grow oranges for a living - an occupation of which they knew absolutely nothing - on a little farm in the mountains of the Spanish island of Mallorca during the1980s. Those five books and their prequel, the set-in-Scotland 'Thistle Soup', sell in large numbers worldwide and have been translated into several languages. Now concentrating on writing fiction, Peter's stories, which all contain his hallmark brand of dry humour, range in theme from the offbeat 'Bob Burns Investigates' mysteries to his first historical novel, 'Song of the Eight Winds', an epic tale of Medieval Spain. In his venturesome, roller coaster ride through life, Peter has been a Civil Service Executive Officer (for eighteen reluctant months!), professional jazz musician, record producer, farmer of beef cattle, and rookie Mallorcan orange grower - which is where we came in. Married with two grown-up sons, he now lives back in his home county of East Lothian, 'The Garden of Scotland'.
