Jo Carden, Director of Relate Brighton Hove Eastbourne Worthing said,” “Relate supports people of all ages with every kind of relationship problem, big or small. We work with individuals, couples and families in all sorts of situations. They might be carers, those in single sex relationships, those affected by illness such as prostate cancer, those in prison and their families, or those who have suffered domestic abuse. The list is endless.”

Peter’s series of police novels have sold over 16 million copies in 36 languages and features Roy Grace, a Sussex police detective. The murders that Roy solves occur throughout Sussex, the last at Haywards Heath Golf Club, and the next at Hove Lagoon.

Director of Relate North and South West Sussex, Sue Quinn added,

“When I read Peter’s last book, Want You Dead, I was struck by the amount of research he had done into the effects of domestic abuse on a victim, something we understand very well at Relate. I was kept on the edge of my seat until the very end.

We are absolutely delighted that Peter has agreed to a patron and support Relate’s work.”
