He worked in a variety of professions such as barman, docker, flight attendant, interpreter, and journalist. He began his career as a professional writer at the age of forty-three. He wrote numerous thrillers, some under pseudonyms such as "H. L. Dugall" and "Michaël Borgia", the latter used with Pierre Rey. He won several prizes for his work: 1967 Prix du Quai des Orfèvres for La Porte d'or (written under the pen name HL Dugall); 1976 Prix du roman d'aventures for Un amour d'araignée; 1987 Prix Maison de la Presse for Daddy. Daddy was translated into English by J. Maxwell Brownjohn. It was made into a bande dessinee illustrated by Rene Follet, and a movie in 2003, featuring Klaus Maria Brandauer.
