Locus1 claims that this is a pseudonym for Peter Leslie, but this is not supported by available evidence, such as Wikipedia. Amazon, encyclopedia.com, Clute (1999) and various other sources claim that these books were written by Patrick Macnee with Peter Leslie. This probably explains Locus1's confusion. The author's note in both novels: "Patrick Macnee gratefully acknowledges the help given to him by Peter Leslie in writing this book."
