Author / Illustrator Profile
Peter J Murray
Brought up in the midst of the Sheffield steel industry. Peter followed in his
father’s footsteps working in a Rotherham steel firm.
The Mokee Jo stories were inspired by a spooky game of hide and seek Peter
developed with his children when they were very young.
A niece – now 23 recently reminded him of the game and this led to the current
book “Mokee Joe is Coming”. Two other books in the trilogy are well on their
way to publication.
