About the Book

The thrilling third novel from multi-award-nominated author Adam Brookes is paranoid, tense spy fiction at its very finest. Meet Pearl Tao: an American girl with a lethal secret. Pearl longs for the life of a normal American teenager: summers at the pool, friends, backyard barbecues in the Washington DC suburbs. But she is different. Her gift for mathematics means overprotective parents and college sponsorship from a secretive technology corporation. And now, aged nineteen, she is beginning to understand what her parents intend for her. The terrifying role she is to play. Her only hope of escape lies with two sidelined and discredited spies: Trish Patterson and Philip Mangan. Finding out the truth about Pearl will be the biggest mission they'll ever undertake. "Authentic, taut and compelling. Brookes is the real deal." -- Charles Cumming

About the Author :
Adam Brookes was for many years a journalist and foreign correspondent for BBC News. He reported from China, Indonesia, the US and many other countries, Iraq and Afghanistan among them. His debut novel, Night Heron, was nominated for the 2014 CWA John Creasey Dagger and appeared on best of the year lists in the TLS, Kirkus and NPR; its follow-up Spy Games was nominated for the CWA Ian Fleming Steel Dagger. The Spy's Daughter is his third novel. He lives with his family in Takoma Park, Maryland.

Review :
"[Adam Brookes] does an excellent job of keeping the action moving and the tension high, making Spy Games a difficult book to put down.... Brookes has separated himself from the pack: I've read a lot of very good China books by excellent journalists, but I've never before stayed up far too late on a work night to finish one, unwilling to go to sleep until I knew how it ended."--Los Angeles Review of Books on Spy Games "A classic spy thriller packed with tension and detail, brilliantly paced."--Peter James on Night Heron "A rich, can't-put-it-down thriller... terrific."--Joseph Kanon on Spy Games "A smarter or more exciting mystery likely won't be released this year."--Kirkus (starred review) on Spy Games "A tense spy thriller of the highest order."--Irish Independent "Another top bit of work from a man who's inching further ahead in the spy thriller stakes."--Sunday Sport (UK) "Authentic, taut and compelling. Brookes is the real deal."--Charles Cumming on Spy Games "Brookes shows that his impressive debut was no fluke, and readers will look forward to Mangan's next adventure."--Publishers Weekly on Spy Games "One of the best and most compulsively readable spy-fiction debuts in years."--Kirkus on Night Heron "Outstanding."--Washington Post on Night Heron "Pulsing with power and danger."--New York Times on Night Heron "Riveting and accomplished."--The Sunday Times (UK) "The must-read thriller of the year."--NPR Books on Night Heron "The plot is thick with intrigue and espionage and is as good a spy novel as any you will read."--Chris High "This would make a superb television spy drama. I really didn't want it to end. A terrific heart-thumping spy thriller."--Northern Crime Reviews
