John Patrick Burdett (born 24 July 1951) is a British crime novelist. He is the bestselling author of ''Bangkok 8'' and its sequels, ''Bangkok Tattoo'', ''Bangkok Haunts'',''The Godfather of Kathmandu'', and ''Vulture Peak''. His most recent novel in this series, ''The Bangkok Asset'', was published on 4 August 2015. ==Biography== Burdett is a former lawyer who lived and worked in Hong Kong for twelve years. For a time, he was employed by the Hong Kong Government. He later worked in private practice. Burdett never really wanted to be a lawyer (he studied English and American Literature at Warwick University where he specialised in Shakespeare and metaphysical poetry), but chose that profession out of despair during the British economic and political crises of the 1970s. After amassing sufficient funds he decided to abandon law and pursue a career as a novelist. Burdett now splits his time between France and Bangkok and continues to research his novels in various locations in Thailand.
