Arthur Hailey (1920-2004) was a British-Canadian novelist of thriller, suspense and police procedural novels. His novels are set in a single industry, including hotels, banks or airlines. He would research the subject for about a year, study his notes for another six months and then spend a year a half actually writing the novel. During his lifetime, he was born in England, emigrated to Canada (and became a Canadian citizen) in 1947, moved to California in 1965 and moved to the Bahamas in 1969 where he would live out the remainder of his life.

Arthur Hailey began his writing career in 1956 and became a published author in 1958 with the novel Runway Zero-Eight (aka Flight into Danger; co-written by John Castle).
