He recently took the big step of moving east to Edinburgh by way of Birmingham, London, Lagos, Chicago, Pittsburgh and New York: a necessary detour, because the traffic otherwise is really, really bad. A graduate of Birmingham University and Harvard Law School, Adam works in the field of counter-terrorist financing, helping banks choke off the money supply to rogue states, narcotics empires, and human trafficking networks. He is the author of the SFF novel Braking Day, as well as the acclaimed mystery/spy novel A Quiet Teacher, featuring Black British expat Greg Abimbola, a seemingly mild-mannered Russian-language teacher with terrifying secrets. Two Times Murder is the second novel in the Quiet Teacher series. Tab Content 6Author Website:Countries AvailableAll regions |
