PRESS RELEASE
Joffe Books is delighted to announce the
publication of this outstanding detective thriller.
“HABIT by T.J. Brearton is a pacey thriller set in upstate
New York. It's one of the first books that I chose to publish with my
London-based company, as I found it absolutely compelling, with a flawed and
complex protagonist. The tension doesn't let up for a minute. And working with
Mr. Brearton, who lives in the Adirondacks, has been fun, even though it's
rather a long distance publishing relationship!” Jasper Joffe

Praise
for his previous books
“This book seriously crawls inside and messes with
you.” K.D. Scriminger, “Rehabilitation” review, Fourth Coast

idiosyncratic and well fitted to the roles they play.” Jerry McGovern, “The Millionaire Rig Veda”
review, Adirondack Daily Enterprise

Rusty Nail Magazine, Orange

JOFFE BOOKS
An independent publishing company based in the
creative hub of Shoreditch, London, close to the digital and artistic
communities that inspire it. Jasper Joffe, a contemporary artist, well-known
for projects such as The Free Art Fair and The Sale of a Lifetime, decided to
found a digital-only publishing company to release outstanding fiction and make
the most of the new opportunities which are transforming the world of books.
“The age of Kindle means that I can bring great
fiction out fast and with everything from cover, to blurb, to marketing done
in-house. I’ve applied some of the knowledge I gained as a successful artist to
the publishing world. It’s a really exciting moment to be doing this, because
for the first time in history, a writer can send me a book and within a month,
if everything goes well, be selling their book and having thousands of people
all over the world reading it!” Jasper Joffe
