Jack Clark came to writing late after spending his life creating three different careers. His first career was as a Stage Carpenter, Stage Manager, Production Manager and Set Designer in some of the UK’s most prestigious theatres, at different times designing sets, building them in the workshops and running the performances.
Using the skills he learned in production, he began a new career in property development, buying houses, turning them around into affordable homes for families, a business he continues to run.
Twenty years ago he was asked if he could teach the technical skills he learned in the British Theatre Industry to a new generation of learners and so began his third career – as a teacher.
Graduating – while working full time - with a degree from the University of Manchester, Jack spent eighteen years working as a college lecturer, personal tutor and Mentor.
He now devotes his time between property development and his passion for writing.
Jack began writing professionally with the intent of creating a credible and rounded female action hero. His creation – Krystian Romanova – has been hailed as a true female hero for the twenty first century.
Her first appearance in ‘Tears of Abraham: Genesis’ was a worldwide success, described by one reviewer as ‘Exciting, intense and stirringly emotional in all the right places.’ and another offering his insight that ‘…the depiction of the Israelis rang true, which is not often seen in "Mossad Novels" …
This initial volume was followed by the second book in the trilogy ‘Tears of Abraham: Revelations’ an action packed roller-coaster of a ride where Krystian and her mentor John Scobie fight for their lives against the barbaric forces of the Islamic State alongside onetime enemies, now strange bedfellows and allies.
The third and final book in the trilogy, ‘Tears of Abraham: Apocalypse’ was published in September 2019.
Jack is a husband and father of two. He lives in the North of England.
