John Sutherland joined the Metropolitan Police Service in 1992, serving for more than 25 years, until his early retirement on medical grounds in 2018. Having started out as a uniformed PC, responding to emergencies on the streets of inner London, he rose through the ranks to become a highly respected senior officer. His last operational posting was as the Borough Commander for Southwark. He is an experienced Hostage & Crisis Negotiator, having served on both the national and international cadres. Since leaving the Met, John has become an established author. His first book,'Blue: A Memoir’, was an instant Sunday Times bestseller and his second, ‘Crossing the Line’ was selected as a BBC Radio 4 Book of the Week. His first novel, ‘The Siege’ - which introduced readers to the worlds of police negotiators Alex Lewis and Pip Williams - was published by Orion Fiction in June 2022 and shortlisted for the Specsavers Debut Come Novel of the Year. Its sequel, The Fallen, was published in 2023 to significant critical acclaim and the third book in the series, The Stalking Season, will be released in 2025.
