Chris Lloyd recommends
Death on the Lusitania (2024)
(Patrick Gallagher, book 1)
R L Graham
"Masterfully weaves historical detail with an enthralling locked-room mystery. Impeccably researched, the story is not just a great crime tale, with a compelling central character in Patrick Gallagher, but a haunting imagining of the last hours of the Lusitania."
A Spy Alone (2023)
(Oxford Spy Ring, book 1)
Charles Beaumont
"Beaumont takes the intrigue, atmosphere and subterfuge of the Cambridge Spies and brings it bang up to date with a what-if tale of an Oxford spy ring at the service of modern-day populist politicians and malevolent regimes. A chilling story that feels all too plausible today, written with extraordinary insight."
Punishment of a Hunter (2021)
(Leningrad Confidential, book 1)
Yulia Yakovleva
"Yulia Yakovleva's thrilling debut was a bestseller in her native Russia. It's not difficult to see why: her eye for detail, clear-eyed view of history and sardonic humour paint a picture of a pinched and paranoid state in which 'one minute you're fine, the next you're a goner'' -- The Times, Best New Crime Fiction
'A masterclass in historical crime fiction set against the vividly-painted backdrop of 1930s Leningrad. It will pull you in and leave you breathless."
