The Nord Stream Conspiracy

A high-stakes international war story in blockbuster prose… A spectacular feat of investigative journalism * New York Times *
Remarkable… Plenty of current-affairs books are trumpeted with the phrase “reads like a thriller”. The Nord Stream Conspiracy genuinely does * Telegraph *
Totally fascinating and deeply researched… Both a fantastic read and an important work of investigation * Simon Sebag Montefiore, Sunday Times bestselling author of The World *
Gripping… perhaps the most daring and consequential act of sabotage since the second world war… straight out of a Frederick Forsyth novel * Financial Times *
Like London Falling… an absolute thriller * Alastair Campbell, The Rest is Politics *
Jaw-dropping… the definitive account of the most impactful special operation in the history of warfare * Owen Matthews, Spectator *
Outstanding… Pancevski’s book [has] something of the feel of The Good, the Bad and the Ugly crossed with The Dirty Dozen – and, yes, it would make a great film… remarkable * Literary Review *
A truly riveting account of the most notorious act of sabotage in modern history. A real-life page turner * Peter Frankopan, Sunday Times bestselling author of The Silk Roads *
Fascinating * Christiane Amanpour *
Pancevski has plucked from the Baltic depths a pearl of a story. In parts it reads like a Jason Bourne thriller except it’s all true – a shadow world brought into the light. The result is jaw-dropping * Rory Carroll, Sunday Times bestselling author of Killing Thatcher *
