Some Famous People called Tricia Walker
Tricia Walker
Patricia Margaret Walker (8 February 1964 – 8 January 2018), better known as Tricia Walker, was a contemporary British author, best known for her debut novel Benedict's Brother, which was voted 'Book of the Year' by Publishing News and was the best-selling launch by an unknown debut author for Borders UK in 2007.
The book follows the journey of a young woman, Benedict, who inherits money from her uncle, a deceased Japanese prisoner of war who was posted in Thailand. Like the protagonist in the book, Walker used the money she inherited from her own POW uncle, Ernest Taylor, to discover what happened to him and also visit her brother who is a Buddhist monk in Thailand.
Walker was the daughter of author Peter Walker, who wrote more than 130 books (under six pseudonyms). Under the pseudonym Nicholas Rhea he wrote the popular Constable series, which was the inspiration behind the successful British TV police drama, Heartbeat, which was broadcast on ITV in 18 series from 1992–2010.
Benedict's Brother launched as an eBook on all major platforms on 18 November 2013. A motion picture based on the book was in development.
