The Scarlet Papers is the best spy novel I’ve ever read!
I was curious when I’ve read the blurb and from the first pages I was hooked. Such an engaging story!
I feel that I want to read more espionage books now (and I’ve bought other books by this author because he’s a genius).
The characters are interesting, the plot is twisted and the story really intense. The final reveal though - oh my!
I don’t have words to describe how perfect this book is.

A thrilling espionage tale where a burnt out academic is chosen to write and reveal the life of Britain’s top Cold War spy. Engagingly written and utterly immersive, it really had the energy of a James Bond style book - a single character becoming utterly wrapped up in this world.
I will say what let this book down and prevented the full five stars was the plot twists - I found them incredibly predictable a lot of the time.
