Fast-paced political-cum-spy thriller with a chilling ring of authenticity and an eerie closeness to present events in Ukraine. Marina stuns Clive with the news that she’s ready to help stop the attack, betraying her country for a new identity and a new life. This shows all the descendants of the Crawley-Boevey baronets, starting with the 2nd Baronet and his brothers. When her former lover, Clive Franklin, arrives in Moscow to translate for the visiting British prime minister, Marina passes him what she learns, while drawing increasing suspicion from some very dangerous enemies.
Summary report on the papers of Arthur Stafford Crawley (1876-1948), canon of Windsor and Anstice Katharine Crawley (1881-1963) in the muniments of St George's Chapel, Windsor (reference: GB-0260-M. On 10th September 1988, her two brothers took off from Turin in a Cessna to fly to Oxfordshire and join Harriet for her 40th birthday.For more details, please consult the latest information provided by Royal Mail's International Incident Bulletin. Both Clive and Marina are great characters and you care about them straight away and hope things turn out well for them. Heather always felt that her parents-in-law looked down on her, though her sister-in-law, Amy, was a friend as well as a useful substitute carer for Heather’s two boys. He thinks and speaks the language like a native, but there is no doubt that the demands of his career as a translator for the Foreign Office are taking their toll. Fast-paced and convincing, Belle’s story builds to a dramatic climax before ending with a neat, quiet and disturbing twist.
Connie is remarkably emotional in her work and also remarkably credulous, but that does not spoil the pace and tension of this novel, Connie’s touching back story or the relationships she develops with other individuals in the institution. Both Belle and her husband are reluctant but acquiesce, and their contented lives are soon threatened by the invader. At the British Embassy, Clive learns of a pending Russian assault on undersea cables linking the US to the UK which would paralyse Western communications.Joining the interesting subgenre of post-sentence crime fiction, journalist T M Logan’s seventh novel follows first-person narrator Heather Vernon as she emerges from prison on licence, having served nine years for the murder of her husband, Liam.
The idea of Serov wanting to be the ‘Russian Bear’, the cult of personality around him and the blatant desire for power and standing in the world. Crawley, herself a fluent Russian speaker, steadily ramps up the tension and Moscow and the Kremlin are finely drawn, although there could be more menace in Marina’s interactions with her boss. We don’t share your credit card details with third-party sellers, and we don’t sell your information to others. Clive happens upon an old lover, Marina, interpreter to the Russian President, who plays games and is apparently slow to recognise him.Between political lines and the tensions between countries, the book gives you such a great journey in a time that is dependant on the communications link to keep the countries running smoothly.
