'This is the most exciting new spy series since Slow Horses: catch it now' DAILY MAIL 'One of our finest new spy writers' DAILY MIRROR 'Perfect for fans of Mick Herron, David McCloskey and Alex Gerlis' DAILY EXPRESS WHEN THE MIDNIGHT LINE RINGS, SOMEONE'S IN DANGER. In the early hours, a terrified call comes into SIS. Russell Finch, a former operative, claims to have information about an imminent attack, that he'll divulge if two conditions are met. He will only talk, alone and off-the-record, with the newly-recruited Jamie Tulloch - and it must be in 'The Box', a grand Pimlico townhouse that's secretly the most secure safehouse in London: a soundproofed, impenetrable bunker. But the attack has already begun. A retired SIS officer wanders a Sussex beach with no memory of how he got there. Mysterious drones hover in the sky. Systems crash and roads are gridlocked. And there's more on the way, with millions riveted by a series of timers ticking down online. With panic, suspicion and mistrust rising across the country - and at the highest levels of government - the SIS team must race to uncover the origin of this mysterious new threat. Who's behind this broad-spectrum chaos? What does Russell Finch know? And why will he only speak to Jamie Tulloch? Praise for multi-award-winning author David Goodman: 'Goodman combines traditional elements - the nods to Buchan, Fleming and le Carré - with the topicality of 2020s technology' SUNDAY 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 'A twisty storyline and convincing action scenes make this a very promising debut' FINANCIAL TIMES 'A twisting, edge-of-your-seat tale of mercenaries, greed, corruption, and espionage' I.S. BERRY '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
