It’s not just murder that’s attracting people across the world to the work of former Keighley man John Waddington-Feather.

The writer’s historical offerings are also proving of interest to fans of John’s crime novels set in a fictional version of Keighley.

He said the success of the novels on Amazon had prompted people to investigate his other work.

John said: “I’ve had requests from drama teachers in New York, Durban and Iran requesting paperback editions of my play Edward The Uncrowned King.

“The play is about Edward VIII and the abdication crisis of 1937.”
