John E. Kinsley

London born in the early 1940's, educated at Princess Road junior school before moving

on to Haverstock Hill High then on to Kings College in London. Being sports minded, football was his calling but after 

several games with Dulwich Hamlet at amateur level his professional ambitions were not to be achieved. British Rail was 

his next port of call where over years he trained up to the level of senior technician with the signal engineers department.

But then he felt a change was needed. The London Ambulance service was his new calling in the early 1970's and over

the following few years he worked his way through the grades to become one of the first front line paramedics to serve

England's capital. Retiring in the late 90's and now living on the beautiful Isle-of -Wight his new ambition turned to writing.

His first release was 'Capital City Paramedic'

published by Woodfield publishers. His second, 'The Thirteenth Man' was self published as was his third

'DCI Reed and the Springfield Connection.'
