Charles Cumming recommends
City of Sins (2011)
(Franco Patrese, book 2)
Daniel Blake
"Stunning. A Chinatown for the twenty-first century."
The Irregular (2017)
(Irregular Spy, book 1)
H B Lyle
"A thrilling story of espionage, murder and the creation of the Secret Service."
The Driver (2017)
Hart Hanson
"The ghost of Raymond Chandler is apparently alive and well and living inside Hart Hanson. I felt as though I was reading a 21st century reboot of The Long Goodbye. Brutal, gripping and funny. A dazzling debut."
Red Corona (2020)
(Richard Knox, book 1)
Tim Glister
"A gripping historical thriller, impeccably researched and skilfully told."
Winter Work (2022)
Dan Fesperman
"So fluent, so clever. Fesperman brilliantly recreates the atmosphere of post-Communist Europe. Winter Work confirms that he belongs alongside Joseph Kanon and David Ignatius in the front rank of American spy novelists."
Double or Nothing (2022)
(Double 0, book 1)
Kim Sherwood
"Bang up to date and action-packed, Kim Sherwood has taken the world of James Bond and turned it on its head."
