An elite spy risks his biggest asset - his memories - to defeat an insidious international organisation in this compulsive espionage thriller.
Mulholland Books presents... ASSASSIN OF SECRETS
The agent: Jonathan Chase, the United States' top operative. He will protect and serve his country at all costs.
The target: the Zero Directorate, a shadowy organisation who are kidnapping, interrogating and murdering spies.
He knows that they will come for him... but not if he finds them first.
Chase is on the hunt. But the Directorate lies in wait, and the inescapable truth is that the closer he gets to stopping his enemies, the closer his enemies get to him.
QR Markham's ASSASSIN OF SECRETS is an instant classic. Precise, cool, and enormously entertaining, it takes on the greatest spy thrillers of the Cold War and doesn't just hold its own, but wins. I loved every word of it. - Jeremy Duns, author of Free Agent
Hardcore, old school spy fiction for a generation raised on ass-kicking Bourne flicks. Q.R. Markham's thrilling debut is just like his spy hero: ambitious and audacious. - Duane Swierczynski
A dazzling, deftly controlled debut that moves through familiar territory with wry sophistication. - Kirkus Review *starred
