Person
Gawain Barker spent three decades cooking around the globe. His culinary autobiography - 200 Kitchens: Confessions of a Nomad Cook - tells this unique story. Now retired from the kitchen, he's writing a crime thriller series set in the tropics of Australia. With the noir/private-eye template as a starting point, the books explore the rough-as-guts social mores, endemic political and police corruption, and absolute personal freedoms of an often lawless era - Far North Queensland in the 1970s & 1980s.Through decades of personal experience, much research, and many interviews, he has created an untold world of epic natural beauty, wild times, raw action, and dirty history.
