  • Robert Crouch is the author of the Downland Murder Mystery series, set in and around the South Downs of East Sussex. He uses his extensive knowledge and experience as an environmental health officer to create a new kind of sleuth for a fresh approach to the traditional murder mystery. When not creating complex plots and puzzles at his PC, Robert likes to get out in the fresh air. He enjoys running, walking, landscape and wildlife photography, and gardening. He’s always been interested in mysteries, particularly those that don’t have an answer.
