Three Thrillers of Deception and Duty: Meet Charles Cummingβs hero Thomas Kell
A dark past follows Thomas Kell, the disgraced ex-MI6 agent. It clashes with whatβs left of his personal life; it haunts Kell and makes others wary of him. Trust is treated as a dangerous indulgence β neither offered nor assumed.
Even so, the service needs him β and he cannot say no when a friend is involved. Amidst personal turmoil, torn between loyalties, Kell once again enters the world of espionage. Can he bury the past, or will it collect?
Fast-moving plots, fascinating situations, a touch of humour, and a dangerous undercurrent make these page-turners devourable. Not to mention ruthless killers and devious machinations. The Cold War is back with a vengeance!
Charles Cummings proves that espionage is as gripping as ever. Think less martini-fuelled glamour, and more paranoia and intrigue β somehow, thatβs the fun of it!
A well-deserved 8.5/10 Β from us!
