Reviews"The immediacy of Duns' writing grabs and suspends the reader in a beautifully realized heartbeat of recent history." -- Kirkus Reviews Praise for Free Agent : "Duns' tightly coiled plot recalls the paranoia of Len Deighton's early works and the tension of Adam Hall's Quiller novels." -- Chicago Sun-Times "Nothing like a return to the Cold War for a hot summer day." -- New York Post "Duns' debut is being called 'reminiscent' of John le Carré's Cold War spy thrillers." -- Sacramento Bee "Seldom has a thriller plot taken more unseen turns...Readers will eagerly await the sequel." -- Publisher's Weekly (starred review) "This debut novel [ Free Agent ], the first in a trilogy featuring Paul Dark, is superior fiction, with an unexpected twist." -- Library Journal "A diabolically clever novel that will keep you guessing until the final moments." -- Bookpage "A sleek, fast-paced tale of espionage and international intrigue that held me utterly entranced. Duns is an exceptional talent. As I rapidly turned the pages I was transported back to the heyday of spy fiction and reminded of the best of le Carré, Deighton and Forsyth. Recommended without reservation. --Christopher Reich, author of Rules of Deception "Terse, sardonic and knowing, Free Agent is a take-no-prisoners exploration of loyalty, duplicity and love. I dare anyone to put this book down after reading the first electrifying chapter." --Eric von Lustbader, author of First Daughter Praise for Song of Treason : "With its subtlty deployed late-60s detail, [ Song of Treason ] is a treat for fans of traditional Len Deighton-style spy thrillers." -- The Guardian (London) "A cleverly twisted tale of intrigue and deception, this is a masterly excursion back to the bad old days of the Cold War." -- The Times (London) "An homage to the morally ambiguous Sixties thrillers of le Carré and Deighton...nuanced to the hilt." -- The Telegraph (London), "The immediacy of Duns' writing grabs and suspends the reader in a beautifully realized heartbeat of recent history." - Kirkus Reviews, Praise for Free Agent : "Duns' tightly coiled plot recalls the paranoia of Len Deighton's early works and the tension of Adam Hall's Quiller novels." - Chicago Sun-Times "Nothing like a return to the Cold War for a hot summer day." - New York Post "Duns' debut is being called 'reminiscent' of John le Carré's Cold War spy thrillers." - Sacramento Bee "Seldom has a thriller plot taken more unseen turns…Readers will eagerly await the sequel." - Publisher's Weekly (starred review) "This debut novel [ Free Agent ], the first in a trilogy featuring Paul Dark, is superior fiction, with an unexpected twist." - Library Journal "A diabolically clever novel that will keep you guessing until the final moments." - Bookpage "A sleek, fast-paced tale of espionage and international intrigue that held me utterly entranced.
