Jon Harris

- About
- Jon Harris grew up in the West Country just outside Bristol before moving to Cardiff to study physics and then Durham where he studied for a PhD in astronomy. After spending a few years staring into space he returned to the West Country for work and took up writing. His first novel, Murder on a Country Lane, was published in 2023.
He now lives in a village in North Somerset with his wife, son and pet tortoise. He's happy to report that the village is far less murderous than its fictional counterpart.
