Critics Review
PRAISE FOR MULTI-AWARD WINNER DAVID GOODMAN
Innocents have been caught up in espionage ever since The Thirty-Nine Steps. David Goodman’s engrossing thriller offers an ingenious variation on the trope. Goodman combines traditional elements - the nods to Buchan, Fleming and le Carré - with the topicality of 2020s technology and the threat from Russia * SUNDAY TIMES *
A twisty storyline and convincing action scenes make this a very promising debut * FINANCIAL TIMES *
If you think you’ve read every twist in every area of the genre, think again. Don’t start it last thing at night or you might miss breakfast! – VAL MCDERMID
A propulsive, intelligent, ripped-from-the-headlines spy novel that’s guaranteed to cost you hours of sleep. Highly recommended * DAVID McCLOSKEY *
A gripping debut, perfect for fans of Mick Herron and David McCloskey * THE SUN *
In the very top tier of espionage fiction – M. W. CRAVEN
An excellent debut with terrific pace…will grip you to the end – JAMES SWALLOW
