Adam Gardner
I would hate to give the impression that Hobart Books was my sole creation for the truth is I wouldn't have known where to start. Hobart is a collaboration between myself and Adam Gardner and it has to be said that he is the brains behind the outfit. We're a double act; he's the straight man and I'm the other straight man.
From humble beginnings as a sixteen year old boy soldier, Adam attended university and eventually received a PhD from Cambridge. Years spent in the publishing industry have led him to this point as co-owner of Hobart Books, soon to be the best small publisher in Britain if not the universe.
In other news, I have been watching Stay Close on Netflix, an adaptation of a Harlan Coben story featuring fellow countryman, James Nesbitt and Eddie Izzard who once lived in my home town. That's just incidental detail by the way. The point I was trying to make is that here is a police drama without the anger, finger-pointing and shouting of virtually every other police drama and it is much better for it.
Instead there is humour and a realistic portrayal of normal working relationships.
Happy New Year. Read books.
