Stuart Neville
1972
Stuart Neville was a fan and customer of the No Alibi bookstore situated in Belfast, Northern Ireland before he became a writer. And now he holds his own book launch parties there. How times change! Born in 1972, Stuart Neville lives in a small town with his family, and not in Belfast, the city that plays a central role in his thrillers, but just outside it. He was a rock guitarist before he decided to become a writer. But when you look at him, he looks more like the guitarist he used to be than the author he is now. And that’s not it, he used to be a composer, a teacher, a salesman, a film extra, a baker and a hand double for a well-known Irish comedian, and is currently, along with being a writer, a partner in a successful multimedia design business in the wilds of Northern Ireland. Stuart Neville has been extremely versatile in his profession and interests, as is evident.
