‘Tim Glister puts the reader at the heart of the Cold War and captures the high stakes paranoia of the era brilliantly.’ Adam Hamdy, author of Black 13

‘Stunningly authentic, masterfully plotted and brilliantly composed, this is historical thriller writing at its very best.’ Matthew Richardson, author of The Insider

‘An entertaining, not to say nostalgic, espionage thriller.’ The Times Crime Club


‘A plot that ticks like a fine watch, this is a pin-sharp Cold War thriller.’ James Swallow, author of Nomad


'What a ride! The fast pace kept me on the edge of my seat. This is perfect storytelling. I bloody loved it.' Ava Glass, author of The Chase


'Fascinating... an intriguing and pacey story based on a frightening premise.’ Mystery People


'There’s a touch of James Bond here but Glister’s tightly controlled, fast-moving story never veers into caricature.’ Financial Times
