A GOOD HOUSEKEEPING READER FAVOURITE

'Dark, twisty, and thoroughly entertaining, Mrs Spy is a Thursday Murder Club for spies. You won't be able to put it down' - Ava Glass

Get ready for a pulse-pounding, laugh-out-loud ride through 1960s London as Maggie Flynn, unexpected MI5 operative and single mum, unravels the intelligence agency's most treacherous secrets.

***

Maggie Flynn isnât your typical 1960s mum.

Sheâs a spy, an unsuspecting operative for MI5, stalking Londonâs streets in myriad disguises.

Widowed and balancing her clandestine career with raising a Beatles-mad teenage daughter, Maggie finds comfort and purpose in her profession â" providing a connection to her late husband, whose own covert past only surfaced after his death.

But Maggieâs world spins out of control when a chance encounter with a mysterious Russian agent triggers a chilling revelation: he knew her husband. And whatâs worse, the agent suspects someone on home soil betrayed him.

As Maggie searches for answers, sheâll question everyone â" and everything â" she thought she could trust. In the murky and perilous world of espionage, can she outsmart those determined to keep her silenced?

'A gripping story and great 60s detail, Mrs Spy is the female answer to Harry Palmer' â" Ian Moore

'Mrs Spy is a delicious recreation of 1960s London... rich and well-constructed' - Emma Flint
