Northern Spy

The acclaimed author of Under the Harrow and A Double Life returns with her most thrilling novel to date - now a Reese's Book Club Pick.

THE INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER | A REESE'S BOOK CLUB PICK

A producer at the Belfast bureau of the BBC, Tessa is at work one day when the news of another IRA raid comes on the air. As the anchor requests the public's help in locating those responsible for this latest attack - a robbery at a gas station - Tessa's sister appears on the screen pulling a black mask over her face.

The police believe Marian has joined the IRA, but Tessa knows this is impossible. But when the truth of what has happened to her sister reveals itself, Tessa will be forced to choose: between her ideals and her family.
