A Treachery of Spies by Manda Scott
Capitaine Ines Picaut has only just begun working again. Physically, she has recovered but the fire left invisible scars that are still healing. When a woman is assassinated in the middle of Orleans, Picaut's team are called in. But something isn't adding up.
Superb. . a blend of historical imagination and storytelling verve reminiscent of Robert Harris. * The Sunday Times *
A Treachery of Spies is the equal of Charlotte Gray in its insights into the period and, I would say, beats it for sheer excitement… one of the most gripping spy stories I have ever read. -- Jake Kerridge * S Magazine *
This book opened up and swallowed me whole - the characters, the plot, the writing, everything. It's the most exciting, involving thriller I've read in an age, and I can't recommend it highly enough. -- Mick Herron
[Scott's] writing is as commanding as ever -- Barry Forshaw * Guardian *
This is a rich vein for fiction, and Scott does it more than justice, with this beautifully imagined, beautifully written, smart, sophisticated - but fiercely suspenseful - thriller. -- Lee Child
