How to Betray Your Country (2021)
(Discipline Files, book 2)
James Wolff
"James Wolff clearly knows in detail the complex and murky world of Middle Eastern intrigue. An intelligent, exciting and wholly convincing novel."
The Society of Others (2004)
William Nicholson
"A novel I would dearly love to have written... Exciting, funny, wise, and beautifully written... Nicholson has to my mind established himself with this first work of adult fiction as one of the best novelists around."
