Summary

After a devastating political assassination, two journalists stand between the truth and a conspiracy that will shock the world.

Tom Novak and Stella Mitchell are covering the aftermath of a chilling terror attack on the British Prime Minister and the US Secretary of Defense. But the further the American and English duo investigate, the more holes they find in the official version of events.

When they link the attack to a series of suspicious deaths the night before, Novak and Mitchell find themselves the next targets in an extraordinary conspiracy involving the White House, the British government, and a shadowy deep-state organization.

With help from a maverick CIA officer and a whistleblower within British Intelligence, Novak and Mitchell must risk everything to track down the one source who can break their story and expose the shocking truth. On the run for their lives, they will find out just how far those in power are willing to go to preserve their secrets...

An Amazon UK No.1 bestseller for three straight months, Official Secrets is packed with globetrotting action and rollercoaster twists. If you like David Baldacci and BBC's Line of Duty and Bodyguard, this addictive series will leave you telling yourself ‘just one more page'.

Just brilliant!

I was sceptical as to whether I would be able to keep up with this detailed and “edge of your seat” book, but it is so well written and narrated that it just flew by.
I’m so pleased that I have found this writer and look forward to his other books with relish.

The only change I made was to turn the narration speed down very slightly to .95 which enabled me not to feel quite so breathless when listening.

Absolutely superb story & narration can't wait for next one

Wow! What a rollercoaster! And sadly all too believable. I don't know how the narrator managed to pull off so many voices and accents in this non-stop thriller. Just loved it!!!

Edge of your seat!

Fantastic story and characters with excellent detail, suspense and twists.
I love AR’s other books and I am very glad that I decided to listen to this book and delighted I can now binge the others.
Wasn’t sure about narration at first as a bit staccato, but all ok. Enjoy.
