Dave Cousins

Dave Cousins is a member of the Edge, a group of UK authors who specialise in writing gripping and hard-hitting fiction for young adults. Before becoming an author, Brummie Cousins went to art school and played guitar in band. 15 Days Without a Head was written in their tour van (the band had been touring for more than a decade and was nearly famous! insists the writer). Cousins now lives in Hertfordshire with his wife and family, and spends his days writing in the attic, with an anarchic ginger cat for company.
