It's an absolute baptism of fire coming into a well established series at book 9, but Mick Herron's writing drew me in beautifully. 💙📚

#ClownTown is out tomorrow, and it's a cracker!

Thank you @baskervillejmp.bsky.social for introducing me to the wonderful #SlowHorses - review brewing! 🤩

Happy publication day to GUNNER by @alanparks.bsky.social! 🪖

Partly inspired by the true story of Rudolph Hess's secret mission to broker appeasement with Britain during the Second World War, GUNNER is an atmospheric and addictive new thriller.
