Product Description

The Afghan: Frederick Forsyth
Frederick Forsyth writes dazzling international thrillers that provoke and entertain. The Afghan — the story of a daring mission to thwart an Al Qaeda plot against the West, by sending in a carefully trained lookalike to pose as an Afghan — displays all his classic hallmarks; impeccable research, political insight, breathtaking suspense.

Sun at Midnight: Rosie Thomas
Alice Peel, geologist, finds that nothing has prepared her for the beauty of Antarctica, or for the claustrophobia of sharing a tiny base on that icy continent with nine other people. It is an isolation that seems powerful enough to wipe out everyone’s past and alter them for ever. For Alice, it might mean an escape from her mistakes — if only love did not shape the future in such unexpected ways.

Echo Park: Michael Connelly
Michael Connelly, who has been called the “best crime writer in the world”, seems to get better with every book. Echo Park features his much-acclaimed series character, Harry Bosch, who is once again in the LAPD cold case department. But Bosch himself is in trouble when a colleague suggests that by missing a clue thirteen years ago he has allowed a serial killer to roam the streets.

Messenger of Truth: Jacqueline Winspear
Private investigator Maisie Dobbs is on the trail, from her Bloomsbury office to the beaches of Dungeness, and into the heart of the art world in the 1930s. Former soldier and controversial artist Nick Bassington-Hope has been found dead on the eve of his eagerly awaited new exhibition, and it’s Maisie’s job to discover why. An appealing new detective story.
