JT Wilson grew up imagining that as an adult, he would be as debonair and dashing as Gomez Addams and as talented and acclaimed as David Bowie. Somewhere along the line and probably due to his own clumsiness and indiscipline, the ambition stalled, buried beneath a mass of hair-dye, glitter, cheap drum machines and a conversational style combining his posh education, the guttural vowels of his coastal Northern hometown and his fondness for Bill And Ted and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Since then he has variously found work as a church caretaker, a debt collector, a rock singer and a professional wrestling manager. He lives in Coventry. ‘Cemetery Drive’ is his first novel.
