Losing one spy might be a mistake;

Losing two seems negligent;

Losing three is a disaster.​

BOOK 2

When investigator Septimus Brass delves into the strange death of an intelligence officer and the vanishing of two others, he encounters a web of official deceit. 

     The stakes are high. Some government ministers are eager to dismantle the Secret Intelligence Service, or MI6. 

    The world's largest private security firm is ready to buy up the remnants of the Ziggurat, the SIS headquarters on London's Albert Embankment. 

    Without the SIS, the UK will be left vulnerable in a dangerous world. 

    Can Septimus stop it happening, even if it means losing his life? 

    How Not to Kill a Spy is both murder mystery and spy caper.

BOOK 1

We trained him. We armed him. We sent him off to war. 

 

Now he’s coming for us.

 

During the two minute silence on Armistice Day, a sniper hidden in a building opposite the Cenotaph guns down the prime minister, the leader of the opposition and two ministers. He escapes, disguised as a police officer.

 

In charge of the manhunt is Bridie Connor, laconic head of counter-intelligence at the Secret Intelligence Service. Reporting to her is Septimus Brass, National Crime Agency investigator. 

 

Their adversary turns out to be neither terrorist nor foreign agent but a vengeful British ex-special forces soldier. 

 

Septimus has just one question: why? 

 

A powerful novel of love, betrayal and revenge.
