A new genre: identity fiction. A genre blending narrative that fuses psychological fiction, travel, and identity transformation into a story that feels both cinematic and deeply personal.

John Hunter lives by one principle: identity creates reality. But when a chance encounter with an American actress at a Cambridge hotel pulls him into a chain of events stretching from rural England to the streets of Bucharest, that principle is tested in ways he never imagined. Forced to confront the architecture of his own beliefs – and the shadows cast by the people orbiting his life – John discovers that reality is not something you witness. It’s something you author.

As he navigates danger, desire, synchronicity, and the quiet gravity of family, John learns that every moment – even the darkest – is a mirror reflecting identity back at him.

Part thriller, part memoir, I Am John Hunter is a novel about identity authorship: of life, of belief, of self. It entertains, it disrupts, and it leaves something changed inside the reader.

Bonus material includes an exclusive insight into the sequel, Jhulia.
