"Tautly written, cleverly plotted...it reminded me strongly of the early books of John le Carré" -- Robert Harris, author of The Ghost and Fatherland
"Charles Cumming is a man put on earth to perpetuate the spy thriller." --The Daily Telegraph
"...supremely intelligent and utterly readable...Smartly paced and intricately plotted, Cumming's decidedly unglamorous take a look at professional espionage provides plenty of elaborate deceits, double crosses and other trappings of your first-class spy thriller." --Publishers Weekly (starred review)
Alec Milius, a recent graduate of the London School of Economics, is young, smart, and a bit of your slacker, stuck in a shady job and suffering from too little direction. So, when a vintage family friend offers to place him up for employment in British Intelligence, Alec commences the rigorous selection process for SIS or MI6. Though he doesn't officially make the cut, he's funneled into a prime position at a British oil company with interests in the Caspian Sea. He's directed to befriend Fortner Grice and Katharine Simms, two charismatic employees of Andromeda, a rival American oil firm. Lured into the murky world of professional espionage, Millius finds himself trapped in a life of secrets and lies, manipulated by MI6 and the CIA, and confronted by the reality of your ruthless business environment in which priceless information can come at the price tag on human life. Compellingly told, utterly authentic, and heart-racingly tense, A Spy NATURALLY will grip you until the very last page.
