Peter Driscoll bol britský autor bestsellerov, ktorého medzinárodné thrillery definovali 70. a 80. roky 20. storočia. Jeho diela často skúmali zložité medzinárodné intrigy a politické napätie, pričom sa vyznačovali napínavým dejom a bystrým pozorovaním ľudskej povahy. Driscollov štýl bol zručným spojením akcie a psychologickej hĺbky, čo čitateľom poskytlo pohlcujúci zážitok. Jeho schopnosť vytvárať napätie a skúmať morálne dilemy z neho robí významnú postavu v žánri thrillerov.
