About the Book

'NOMAD is unputdownable. A must-read.' - Wilbur Smith FIND THE TRUTH BEFORE THEY FIND YOU A pulse-racing terrorist thriller - perfect for fans of I Am Pilgrim, Bourne, 24 and Homeland Marc Dane is a MI6 field agent at home behind a computer screen, one step away from the action. But when a brutal attack on his team leaves Marc as the only survivor - and with the shocking knowledge that there are traitors inside MI6 - he's forced into the front line. However the evidence seems to point towards Marc as the perpetrator of the attack. Accused of betraying his country, he must race against time to clear his name. With nowhere to turn to for help and no one left to trust, Marc is forced to rely on the elusive Rubicon group and their operative Lucy Keyes. Ex US Army, Lucy also knows what it's like to be an outsider, and she's got the skills that Marc is sorely lacking. A terrorist attack is coming, one bigger and more deadly than has ever been seen before. With the eyes of the security establishment elsewhere, only Lucy and Marc can stop the attack before it's too late. ADVANCE PRAISE FOR NOMAD 'An intelligent, likable and, above all, believable hero is faced with a frighteningly credible threat in a thriller that hits the tarmac running and doesn't stop accelerating until its terrifying conclusion.' Ben Aaronovitch, author of the Sunday Times bestselling PC Peter Grant novels 'A terrific white-knuckle, lip-chewing thriller. Marc Dane is the British Jason Bourne. About bloody time!' Rhianna Pratchett

Review :
Right on the money, bang up to date, Nomad is a scorching romp for grown up boys. A killer of a thriller Nomad is a debut spy thriller from a veteran science-fiction author who delivers his (...) enjoyable narrative at a frenzied pace, with plenty of narrow escapes for reluctant hero Dane Ferociously paced thriller, a high-concept tale of the solitary hero on the run, bristling with technology and frequently erupting into lethal violence...the author's background in scriptwriting and videogames means that the tale is slick and sharply focused... Followers of Jason Bourne or those who are familiar with I Am Pilgrim and / or homeland will agree that this book is a rattling good yarn. Well written with plenty of cliffhangers and thoroughly enjoyable Exciting Thriller Nomad is a globe-trotting espionage thriller (...) and very enjoyable Dane stands out as an unusual action hero... Breathless and thrilling, sharply plotted and almost painfully topical, it's a gripping story that does everything a spy thriller should. There's only one word to sum up Nomad and that word is Wow! Wow! and Wow! again. Swallow hits the page running and you never stop, from the panoramic opening scenes in Barcelona through to the military operation in Dunkirk and on through the rest of the novel This is edge of the seat stuff that is terrifyingly real in places and pushes the boundaries of reality in others, not unlike most high-action thrillers. If you're a fan of the novels of Lee Child, Frederik Forsyth and Chris Ryan or you can't wait for the new Bond film and love the TV series 24, then this is for you Highly sophisticated and presented with incredible detail that it is highly credible...The narrative is very fluent and moves at speed, the reader immediately dragged into the action and despite the number of scenarios, locations, characters and events introduced rapidly in the opening chapters, Swallow's confident and clear style ensures it's accessible and easy to follow rather than overwhelming Nomad is utterly gripping, cleverly plotted and one hell of a thriller. Highly Recommended James Swallow describes a character who is likeable and who is just like Bond (...) It is a good story and the author gets you to keep turning the pages in order to know what happens next I think I've found my new favourite action adventure author and main character! (...)The writing and action is fast paced keeping you on the edge of your seat and barely letting you catch your breath before the next bit of excitement is upon you (...) An excellent book and a really enjoyable read, I'm already looking forward to the next book which will be out some time next year A gripping finale. Highly recommended Swallow keeps the tension taut and the reader guessing until the end, all the while delivering a topical story. In Dane he has an appealing protagonist in what is sure to be a successful series A rattling good plot A ripper of a thriller! Swallow is an experienced scriptwriter who has a fine eye for action scenes and knows how to keep his story moving quickly throughout its almost 500 pages... With its brisk plot, frequent cinematic action and constantly shifting viewpoint Nomad is sure to appeal to fans of Jason Bourne. Read it now before the inevitable movie arrives The climax, as Dane and Keyes fight to prevent an ingenious and deeply unpleasant attack from taking place right in the heart of New York, was one that became genuinely impossible to put down. Nomad is a fast-paced, tautly written thriller with an extremely engaging main character who can both think and shoot his way out of trouble When I saw this was being compared to I Am Pilgrim I was a little bit dubious, but it actually is a really great book with a gripping plot and great characters. I can see this novel being a huge hit because it has everything a great crime thriller should. It does live up to the comparison with other great novels of its type and it will have readers gripped from page 1
