Tom Howard

Tom Howard is not only the pseudonym of John Howard Reid, but is also the name of the protagonist in many of his books. Funnily enough (or maybe it isn't funny, who knows) the protagonist in other books is Jack Reid. Reid was born in Sydney and graduated from Melbourne University, serving in the police forces of Victoria, Queensland, South Australia and Western Australia.
 
For those who want to read the Tom Howard series in order, be warned, the series order is different to the order in which the books were published. I'll try to indicate where I can, the chronological order of the series.
