Book One in the Alias Emma series

Alias Emma

I love a good spy book and if it can have a good dose of humour too then I'm hooked.  This was my first read from this author and I thoroughly enjoyed it.  There are spies, competing agencies, fraught allies and assassins chasing our MC's across London.

Emma is anewly fledged agent of the Vernon Institute and has a bit of a history with the GRU agents who attempt to trap and return Russian defectors, sometimes the returnees are of the dead variety. She's been ordered to have pediatric oncologist Michael Primalov report to an MI6 safe house. The Russians are after Michael‘s mother Elena, who fled to the west 2 decades ago. She's got no backup and all communications have gone dark.  What's a new Jemima Bond to do?

An absolute roller-coaster ride of action, adventure, enemies to allies, heart-thumping thriller. There are traps for the courageous duo to fall into and escape and nothing is quite as straight-forward as it may seem. The ending will leave you with a satisfying taste of vengeance!

I received an early reader copy from NetGalley and Random House and this is my honest and voluntary review.
