迈克尔·道布斯，1948年出生于英国赫特福德郡，毕业于牛津大学。道布斯纵横英国政坛三十余年，初涉政坛便很快崭露头角，被称为“威斯敏斯特的娃娃脸杀手”；后任政府特别顾问和撒切尔政府幕僚长，最终于保守党副主席的职位上退休，2010年被英王室册封为男爵。 作为畅销书作家的道布斯共著有十余部畅销作品。1989年，他讲述英国官场故事的处女作小说《纸牌屋》大获好评，次年被BBC改成电视剧，风靡全球。 继《纸牌屋》中老谋深算的弗朗西斯·厄克特之后，道布斯又于2012年创作了哈里·琼斯这一孤胆政客角色，“哈里·琼斯政治冒险系列小说”也迅速成为他文学创作上的又一座里程碑。这一系列包含了《老牌政敌》《叛国者》等五本政治冒险佳作，一上市就引发热议，并获得众多英国主流媒体的广泛赞誉，频获“五星级好书”荣誉。
