Growing up, Gill fed on a steady diet of Poirot, Columbo, Miss Marple, Murder She Wrote, Bergerac, and Midsomer Murders.

As such, it was only natural that when he became an adult and decided to try his hand out at writing fiction he would become a mystery author.

While he was born in Dorset in the United Kingdom, he moved to London when he was eighteen and found a job in printing where he specialized in packaging and pharmaceutical leaflets.

Following several years of commuting to work in the fast-paced city, he decided to move back home to Dorset on the South Coast for the slower pace of life. It was during this time that he made the decision to write detective thrillers.

When Jay is not writing his bestselling novels, he can usually be found working in his garden, reading, traveling, and cooking.

“Knife and Death” by Jay Gill is the story of Detective James Hardy. His life has gone into a tailspin after he is informed that in the River Thames has been found the body of his best friend.

Things are only more complicated by the fact that his personal life comes under a lot of scrutiny, even as his family comes under threat. Hardy begins asking himself if he has the ability to keep it together for long enough to find the killer.
Just when he was thinking things could not get any worse, a new serial killer comes onto the scene and begins showing an unhealthy interest in him. Could the detective have finally met his match?
This is a suspense-filled read that will keep its readers turning the pages to find out if the detective can keep his family safe and find the killer in time.

Hardy is working on the two cases, even as he is struggling to make a stable home for his two daughters and himself following the brutal murder of his wife and their mother.
With the body count rising in both cases, it does seem the killer has been getting more confident and bolder.
