Devil, Darling, Spy

Description

A bitingly smart, timely and adrenalin-fuelled historical thriller delving into the horrors of germ warfare, sequel to the Costa Award-shortlisted ORPHAN MONSTER SPYA teenage spy. A killer disease. And the monster who would use it. Sarah is used to spying in the champagne-fuelled parties of Nazi Berlin. But now she must track a deadly virus through central Africa and unmask the mysterious White Devil before the disease can be turned into a weapon...They think she is a terrified little girl. But she is a warrior set to burn them all.

Matt Killeen was born in Birmingham, in the UK, back when trousers were wide and everything was brown. Several careers beckoned, some involving laser guns and guitars, before he finally attempted to make a living as an advertising copywriter and a largely ignored music and sports journalist. He now writes for the world's best loved toy company, as it wasn't possible to be an X-wing pilot. Orphan Monster Spy is his first novel. Author location: Surrey

Superbly written novel... deeply absorbing and rewarding. * The Guardian * An utterly entrancing read * Irish Times * [A] thought-provoking page-turner * iNews *
