Description: "The story, spiced with murder and torture, is engrossingly labyrinthine." - Sunday Telegraph "The United States' debt to China has changed the balance of power dramatically in this convincing near-future thriller from Freedland...who keeps the pages turning and unveils a twist that few will anticipate." - Publishers Weekly "Excellent.... This is an intelligent, finely crafted mystery, a speculative thriller that brilliantly channels the anxieties of our time." - New York Times Book Review "The writing is concise and compellingly readable.... Freedland has another winner here." - Booklist "Excellent.... Think of this novel as a gritty, noirish crossbreed of Blade Runner and L.A. Confidential.... This is an intelligent, finely crafted mystery, a speculative thriller that brilliantly channels the anxieties of our time." - New York Times Book Review "Boldly imaginative.... A magnetic heroine in a heart-racing story." - A. D. Miller, author of Man Booker-shortlisted Snowdrops "A killer novel...full of intrigue, plotting, and duplicity." - Piers Morgan "Nobody does the high-IQ, high-octane thriller better than Jonathan Freedland." - Tony Parsons "Jonathan Freedland's inventive, thought-provoking political context gives the good plot added bite, depth and intelligence." - The Times (London)
