Hector Miller is a freedman who managed to escape from the corporate world. He is addicted to reading historical novels and his hobbies include hiking, wine and sustaining niggling injuries on the tennis court. Hector has just published his twentieth novel and, like with most things in his life, he doesn't know when to quit, so there will be many, many more. Nowadays he hides away in the Garden Route of South Africa with his wife and two daughters.
