Critics Review
This epic novel of spies and migrants should be up there for the year’s thriller awards … remarkable … his best book yet. Full of poignant scenes and mesmeric action sequences - Sunday Times
With its vivid portrait of the flood of refugees moving west from Macedonia, Serbia and Turkey, the book could not be more timely. Porter’s sympathy for the dispossessed is as cogent here as his skill at sustaining narrative tension - GuardianSplendid… precocious Syrian 13-year-old Naji is a hero of appeal and intelligence - The TimesA worthy addition to Porter’s impressive canon of post-Cold War spy thrillers - Mail on SundayBeautifully written and filled with fascinating, if thoroughly disturbing, insights into ISIS’s cruel mentality and the physical and mental hardships suffered by desperate homeless refuges, this is possibly the most exciting thriller you’ll read this summer - Irish IndependentPorter is a wizard with words … a very good thriller - Literary ReviewAbout The Author
