How far would you go to catch a killer?

This is the question UK agent Emma Makepeace must ask herself when she is sent to Edinburgh for the upcoming global G7 Summit.

The Russians are in town and Emma and her team know a high-profile assassination is being planned.

But who is their target?

There is only one way to find out. Emma must set a trap using herself as bait.

As the most powerful leaders in the world arrive and the city becomes gridlocked, Emma knows the clock is ticking.

A most enjoyable listen. It was an interesting fast pace spy story with lots of twists and turns. Intriguing and must.

A compelling and fast moving spy story

Ava Glass has been called "the new queen of spy fiction" and listening to this book it's easy to see why. Her plots race along at heart-thumping speed, her characters draw you in and don't want to let go. This is book three in the series - though I don't think you have to have read the other two - and her kick-ass female spy, Emma Makepeace, is sent to Edinburgh to try and disrupt a plot to try and kill the Prime Minister during the summit. The action shifts from London to the misty and atmospheric Scotland to the glamorous streets of Rome and back again and every twist and turn had me gripped. Sophie Colquhoun is a great reader too. A phenomenal listen.
