Michael Slade is a pen name.

Since the beginning more than 25 years ago, five writers in all have conjured «Michael Slade»: Jay Clarke, his law partners John Banks and Richard Covell, Jay's wife Lee Clarke, and most recently, his daughter Rebecca Clarke. But, it is Jay Clarke who has been the constant and guiding force throughout all of the collaborations.

Jay Clarke is a lawyer who specializes in cases involving the criminally insane. He has participated in over 100 criminal cases, both for the prosecution, and the defence.
