Contact Zero by David Wolstencroft
Who, what or where is Contact Zero? Deep in the mythology of the Service, whispered in training, clung to in moments of despair, is the belief that it is out there, the last chance saloon. You think you're beaten, betrayed and utterly alone, but maybe you're not. Maybe you get your one shot at rescue, if not redemption. Contact Zero: run by members of the Service, for members of the Service. When an operation is mortally compromised in David Wolstencroft's fabulous second novel, four first-year probationary agents, cut adrift in four corners of the world, must put Contact Zero to the test. But first they have to find it. And maybe one of the youngsters isn't quite as innocent as the others...
" 'An exhuberant and satisfying debut' - Guardian on Good News, Bad News'A rollercoaster ride of a book which manages to be both a traditional spy story and a hip tale of friendship and trust... flair and originality. I loved it.' - Observer on Good News, Bad News. 'Good News, Bad News revitalizes the espionage novel and dishes up a breakneck plot, dizzying twists and two of the most memorable characters in recent suspense fiction. This book is a pure delight' - Jeffery Deaver, author of Garden Of Beasts, on Good News, Bad News. 'Sharp and funny... brilliant... exciting... A dazzling performance, full of surprises, and the only doubt it leaves is what will this most promising author ever do for an encore.' - Chicago Tribune on Good News, Bad News"
