British author Reginald Hill, who created the Dalziel & Pascoe crime novels, has lost his battle with cancer at the age of 75.

The son of a professional soccer player, Hill studied at Oxford University and became a teacher, while quietly writing a series of popular books.

Keating wrote several books before creating Ghote. His first novel, Death and the Visiting Firemen, was published in 1959. It was followed by more witty and slightly surreal novels,...
