Ben Stevens, author of the Nazi-era thriller THE WHISTLER: A MURDERER'S TALE
...Originally from SW London, England, Ben Stevens now works at a 16th century Buddhist temple in Nagasaki City, Japan. He is a husband, father, guitarist and martial arts enthusiast. A Youtube channel, relating to his work and general passions, can be found by searching 'NaNa Nagasaki'.
The move to Japan greatly influenced Ben's writing, resulting in the (sometimes described) 'cult classic' novel 'Big Sound Temple', as well as the autobiographical 'Twelve Years at a Japanese Temple'.
Ben's love of classic detective fiction caused him to create the popular 'Ennin' series - frequently referred to as the 'Japanese Sherlock Holmes' - while he has also written a number of Sherlock Holmes' pastiches. As someone who has read all of the original Conan Doyle stories many times since childhood, Ben believes that he has an excellent understanding of the genre.
With over 160 titles available on Amazon, fact as well as fiction, Ben Stevens has much to offer the discerning reader...
