Anyone reading books by Mick Herron or Gerald Seymour?  These are British authors.

Mick Herron is one of my favorite authors, and I subscribed to Apple TV+ just so I could see Slow Horses (totally worth it).

Not espionage, but I highly recommend "The Women"  by Kristin Hannah.  Incredible book, IMHO.

My last book of the year 2023 was The Marylebone Drop (Slough House #5.5) by Mick Herron @32degrees. Must have been a short freebie read on Amazon. I did enjoy it.

What is this book about?  Is it fiction or non-fiction?  TIA.

I have not read those authors, but I will look them up!

 

For a good spy thriller type book I highly recommend the Expats by Chris Pavone.  (Don't read reviews... its' the twist that made this one so good in my opinion.  Also there is a sequel to it, but you really need to read Expats first.)

 

Currently I am reading The Moroccan Girl by Charles Cummings.  This is a new author to me, but halfway through I am enjoying it.  The main character is a writer attending a book festival in Morocco and he is tapped by MI6 to deliver a package to a mysterious woman.  The story goes from there!
