This debut could just be the start of a brilliant new series, perhaps even ending up as a TV drama?
More than happy to recommend this debut to any fans of Charles Cumming, Robert Harris and John Le Carre, you would not be disappointed!
Set in current times the plot has you twisting around some rather complex characters trying to decide who is working with you or against you. Taking you back over a number of missions to give you background on their relationships with each other, their accomplishments and their failures in the field. Brilliant!
Spy thrillers are not usually what I go for but read this as part of a thriller reading group and really enjoyed it. Reading the book I couldn’t work out who was the real villan! Good plot twists! Looking forward to the next in the trilogy.
