John Barber

    1. leden 1932

    Tento autor se zabývá sociální historií a nostalgickou zábavou a zkoumá úpadek tradičních anglických měst. Jeho detektivní romány, napsané s humorným nadhledem, se zaměřují na vraždy, politické intriky a tajemství v prostředí pozvolna upadajících komunit. Své příběhy obohacuje o prvky jako jsou mimozemská setkání a záhadné postavy, které odrazují od vyšetřování, a často čerpá inspiraci ze sbírky výstřižků z novin z 80. let. Jeho rozsáhlá díla zahrnují také sbírky urážek, citátů o sportu a kvízové knihy, které osvětlují rozmanité aspekty života.
