Trade Review
A vividly drawn, propulsive thriller, that also probes the effects of grief and trauma * The Times, Books of the Year *
This stylish, riveting thriller explodes into a world of 'psychic spies' and dark plots to undermine the world * Daily Mail *
An assured page-turner ... it combines action and foreign locations with big ideas a la Dan Brown * Sunday Times *

Frightening in its subject matter and brilliantly written. It’s a book you will not want to put down * Crime Review *
