Series: A Dark Talents Novel

Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy meets X-Men in a classic British espionage story. A young woman must go undercover and use her superpowers to discover a secret Nazi plot and stop an invasion of England.

In 1936, there are paranormal abilities that have slowly seeped into the world, brought to the surface by the suffering of the Great War. The research to weaponize these abilities in England has lagged behind Germany, but now it's underway at an ultra-secret site called Monkton Hall.

Kim Tavistock, a woman with the talent of the spill-drawing out truths that people most wish to hide-is among the test subjects at the facility. When she wins the confidence of caseworker Owen Cherwell, she is recruited to a mission to expose the head of Monkton Hall-who is believed to be a German spy.

As she infiltrates the upper-crust circles of some of England's fascist sympathizers, she encounters dangerous opponents, including the charismatic Nazi officer Erich von Ritter, and discovers a plan to invade England. No one believes an invasion of the island nation is possible, not Whitehall, not even England's Secret Intelligence Service. Unfortunately, they are wrong, and only one woman, without connections or training, wielding her talent of the spill and her gift for espionage, can stop it.

Reviews for At the Table of Wolves

Kenyon does a fine job of cranking the tension and making the mounting stakes plain. * NPR Books * This remarkable fantasy crosses genre borders-pulling in elements of comic books, war thrillers, and historical fiction-to craft an alternate history spy game sure to satisfy just about any genre reader. * B&N SciFi & Fantasy Blog * At the Table of Wolves is a fabulous read. It's got the feel of Foyle's War and the tense mystery plot of a spy thriller. I enjoyed every bit of it. -- Martha Wells, author of The Books of the Raksura and The Murderbot Diaries I kept thinking about the book long after I read the last page, and I can't wait to see where Kenyon's own Talents take us next. -- Sharon Shinn, author of Troubled Waters Fascinating characters, an absorbing plot, flawlessly written! -- Mike Resnick, Hugo Award-winning author * A superb adventure, worthy to launch a distinguished historical fantasy series. * Publishers Weekly, STARRED REVIEW *
