The books were to concentrate on the character's school-days at Eton. Higson was himself educated at Sevenoaks School, where he was a contemporary of Jonathan Evans, former Director General of MI5. The series comprises Silver Fin (2005), Blood Fever (2006), Double or Die (2007), Hurricane Gold (2007), and By Royal Command (2008).
Higson is currently writing a post-apocalyptic, zombie-horror series of books for young adults, which has been extremely successful.
