About this listen

A twisting international spy novel, The Righteous Spy is an intriguing tale of espionage that portrays a clandestine world in which moral transgressions serve higher causes.

Eli Amiram is Mossad’s star spy runner and the man responsible for bringing unparalleled intelligence to the Israeli agency. Now, he’s leading an audacious operation in the UK that feeds his ambition but threatens his conscience.

The British and the Americans have intel Mossad desperately needs.To force MI6 and the CIA into sharing their priceless information, Eli and his maverick colleague Rafi undertake a risky mission to trick their allies: faking a terrorist plot on British soil.

But in the world of espionage, the game is treacherous, opaque and deadly.

A must-listen for fans of Homeland, Fauda and NCIS, it will also appeal to readers of Charles Cumming and John le Carré.

Really enjoyed this story and the characters. Fast paced it isn’t but I enjoyed that. Normally I’d change books or hit Return, but I liked this more than enough. Nice and twisty. Beautifully read.

A great story made all the better for a brilliant narration. Kept the listener guessing to the end which way it would turn. Already onto the second book in the series.

Really enjoyed this fast-paced spy thriller with a twist in the tail. Refreshing change to be written from an Israeli rather than UK perspective. Also liked the fact that there were two narrators, both were excellent. This feels capable of developing into a series. More please!
