Superb . . . a blend of historical imagination and storytelling verve reminiscent of Robert Harris. * The Sunday Times * A Treachery of Spies is the equal of Charlotte Gray in its insights into the period and, I would say, beats it for sheer excitement... one of the most gripping spy stories I have ever read. -- Jake Kerridge * S Magazine * This book opened up and swallowed me whole - the characters, the plot, the writing, everything. It's the most exciting, involving thriller I've read in an age, and I can't recommend it highly enough. -- Mick Herron [Scott's] writing is as commanding as ever -- Barry Forshaw * Guardian * This is a rich vein for fiction, and Scott does it more than justice, with this beautifully imagined, beautifully written, smart, sophisticated - but fiercely suspenseful - thriller. -- Lee Child
