"You become the mysterious reader of a thrilling narrative from a dazzling character - an allegory about what freedom actually means. You will need to read to the finish line to find out. Do not miss this new Dowson piece" JA

“… an incredibly engaging book …you are constantly on the edge of your seat trying to figure out what is going on. The writing was a joy to read. The author is a master storyteller, and you are sure to enjoy The Repurposed Spy.” CB

“I loved the book! I genuinely loved it. It's not at all I was expecting it to be - in a good way. It was filled with unpredictable twists, unforgettable characters, and an end that I didn't see coming but was totally satisfied with. Great book!” DR

“There is something Orwellian about this story - the central character, Ronald Jones, kept reminding me of Winston Smith in 1984, always looking over his shoulder. The author keeps you on the edge of your seat throughout, wondering what will next befall this hapless and apparently reluctant spy. It is an intriguing tale, narrated in a light, slightly whimsical style that constantly keeps you off guard. I rattled through Oliver Dowson’s debut novel at breakneck speed, anxious to get to the denouement. I wasn’t disappointed, and neither, I venture, will you." DJ

“The Repurposed Spy is a page turner. The novel grabbed my attention from the outset and retained my interest throughout. That’s the trademark of a good mystery thriller - it keeps you guessing throughout and looking forward to finding out more at the end. The twist at the end was really surprising! I did not see that coming, and I’m usually good at predicting the outcome.” BR

The sequel, SPIES ON SAFARI, is coming out in November 2023 - available to pre-order now
