Adam Croft

Adam Croft is an English writer of crime fiction. He is a self-published author   and is an advocate of independent publishing.

Writing
Croft has written more than twenty books, including the Knight & Culverhouse crime thrillers and Kempston Hardwick mysteries. He appeared on the USA Today bestseller list twice, with the Kempston Hardwick box set and his 2015 psychological thriller Her Last Tomorrow. Although he had been writing and self-publishing professionally for five years when Her Last Tomorrow was released, it was this book that brought him international attention. He has also had several plays published with Lazy Bee Scripts.

As an advocate of self-publishing, he has often spoken out about the negative sides of traditional publishing and in 2012 he denounced Sue Grafton's comments that self-publishing was disrespectful and lazy.

He was awarded an Honorary Doctorate of Arts by the University of Bedfordshire in March 2018 "in recognition of his outstanding services to literature".

In 2020, he announced he was launching a new crime series set in Rutland.

Adam Croft lives in Flitwick, Bedfordshire.
