Produktbeschreibung
Maverick is the title of the first of three books (volumes) which appear under the general heading: "The Teachers". This book, Maverick, follows the fortunes, failures and experiences of two young school teachers, Bill(American), Adam(English) who form an unusual friendship as colleagues working in a private high school on the plains of North Texas. Bill, very popular with the students, is a Maverick, unwilling to submit to the authorities' orthodox educational principles, imposing instead his own liberal views, and splitting the harmony of the school down the middle. Adam, on his first teaching assignment, and sharing much of Bill's own distaste for Establishment rigidity, quickly finds a friend and ally in Bill. Bill is already active in State politics, and together they distribute Liberal leaflets round the local University campus, and talk light-heartedly of a school production of 'Hamlet'.

Neither is aware of the events that are about to change their lives forever...

Autorenporträt
Inspired in 2013 by his favourite author, Damien Lewis, Richard Joyce began to write his first of the Johnny Vince series. Right from the first book, Operation Blue Halo, he continues to finely blend historical facts and events, combined with raw emotion, suspense, and unexpected twists. When not writing, researching, and editing in his 'man shed', Richard enjoys time with his wife and dog on beach walks; oh, and a sneaky beer. As well as raising funds for charitable affairs that are connected to his writing, he is now busy typing away for a new book, away from the Johnny Vince series.
