When police visit an elderly peeping tom, Detective John Custer uncovers a chilling web of sex crimes, serial killings and hidden graves tied to respectable paedophiles. Spanning 1940s fan clubs to 1980s Britain and global hotspots, The Hobby is a grim, psychological crime thriller of justice and redemption.
Lisa St Aubin de Terán is the prize-winning author of 20 books, including novels, short stories and non-fiction. She is Anglo-Guyanese, and was born and brought up in London. Aged 16, she married an exiled Venezuelan freedom fighter and landowner. After two years travelling around Italy and France, she moved to the Venezuelan Andes, where she managed her husband's semi-feudal sugar plantation for seven years. Much of her writing draws on that time and place. And time warps, rural communities, isolation and grace under pressure are still the dominant themes in both her life and her work.On the strength of 'Keepers of the House' she was chosen as a Best of British Young Novelist in 1982.After leaving the Andean hacienda, she lived as a perpetual traveller for the next twenty years. Then, in 2004, she settled in north Mozambique, establishing the Teran Foundation to develop community tourism. She lived there until 2021, returning to London with a bag full of manuscripts, including her autobiography, 'Better Broken Than New', and two new novels, 'The Hobby' and 'Kafka's Lodge'.
