VJ Books presents John Hart!

John Hart is one of the most celebrated novelists in the country.  Before he began his career as a full time writer, he sailed twice across the Atlantic Ocean and worked on helicopters in Alaska. He drew pints in a pub in London, worked as a tutor in France and on sailboats on the Carolina coast.

 

He earned degrees in French, accounting and law, then pursued careers in banking, law and investment management. Eventually he managed to write two novels that never found a publisher. Convinced he could do better, John took a gamble and quit his law practice to take a stab at chasing the only dream he ever had.

 

He gave himself a year and finished his third novel in eleven months and two weeks. That book, The King of Lies, went through five printings and spent multiple weeks on the New York Times bestseller list. His next novel, Down River, won the Edgar Allan Poe Award for Best Novel and spent weeks on both the New York Times and London Times bestseller list.

 

Now published in twenty-six languages and over thirty countries, John writes full-time.
