Graeme Gibson was born and brought up in Glasgow where he attended Knightswood Secondary School and, later, Glasgow University. He started his working life as an engineer in telecommunications, work which took him to The Midlands and Yorkshire and which provides background for his novels. After attending university as a mature student in the mid 1970's he joined the legal profession and practised both civil and criminal law in his native Glasgow. His novels, The Janus Complex, Archangel and Redemption (the Dark Secrets Trilogy) are set mainly in Glasgow of the 1960's and 1970's and the political unrest that affected the whole of the United Kingdom at the time. Jamie Raeburn, his reluctant hero, becomes embroiled in political skulduggery and wrestles with his conscience throughout. The books take those who know Glasgow back to the recent past and evoke memories of places, times and situations.
