“He was educated at Cranbrook School in Kent, which he left in 1931 to work as a journalist, initially with the Financial Times. He went on to become a prolific author, penning over thirty novels as well as children’s and travel books – his first novel, The Doppelganger, was published in 1937.
Innes served in the Royal Artillery during WWII, eventually rising to the rank of Major. During the war a number of his books were also published. After being demobbed in 1946 he worked full-time as a writ...er, achieving a number of early successes. He produced books in a regular pattern: six months travel and research and then six months of writing.
