He then studied journalism and worked as a newspaper reporter and television screenwriter. He lives in Devon. He has a son called Max Evans, who is head of geography at Preston Manor High School, and a daughter, Lauren. He also has another son Harry, from a relationship he had with Jane Hewland, the TV producer famous for Network 7 and Gamesmaster.

His novel, The Horse Whisperer was No.10 on the list of bestselling novels in the United States for 1995 as determined by the New York Times. Made into a motion picture, Robert Redford directed and starred in the film version opposite Kristin Scott Thomas.
