About the Author

David Stedman spent many years in the printing trade, both at home and abroad, and then in retail management before discovering a talent as a quiz player which led to him founding Quizmail, a national general knowledge tournament which has been running for nearly twenty years, and, in 2003, to winning the title of series champion on the Channel Four television quiz 15-to-1 and to becoming BBC Radio Four's golden jubilee Brain of Britain.

In 2006 he was joint runner-up in the final of the BBC television quiz series Mastermind and it was the in-depth study of the life and work of the artist Caravaggio needed as one of his specialist subjects on that series, together with a lifelong interest in great works of art, which inspired David to write his debut novel That Terrible Shadowing.
