Thank you for logging onto my website.
I’m Rob Starr MBE; author, entrepreneur, and founder of the Starr Trust charity.
For over three decades I’ve built businesses, supported young people through the Starr Trust, and pursued challenges that many would describe as slightly mad. Along the way I’ve swum across the English Channel, written plays and musicals, and eventually discovered what had always been my greatest ambition: writing novels.
Today I write thrillers featuring fraud investigator Kiara Fox, alongside stories that explore mystery, courage and the choices that define us. Through this website you can discover my books, follow my latest projects and find out what I’m working on next.
I hope you enjoy my stories and if you feel able to then please reach out to me and let me know what you think. I really love feedback, so please do get in touch.
Thanks and speak to you soon I hope.
