Jones Bahadur Black is the pen-name of an author still active in the national security arena. Which is which is why you can’t see a full-face photo of him.

Under his given name, Black has published critically-acclaimed nonfiction books with five of the big Establishment houses in the US and UK. His work has appeared often in The New Yorker, The Atlantic and similar outlets. If that’s your speed, you may have read some of it.

His first novel, Her Hundred Hands, will certainly not be viewed with pleasure by the current US Administration. Which is why he has published it with Longmarch.
