Reviews"Breathtaking . . . suspenseful . . . Kell brings a note of grace to the treacherous world of the spy novel." -- Washington Post "A gripping tale of revenge, betrayal and the personal price that spying exacts." -- People magazine "A smart, nuanced, readable tale, reminiscent of Olen Steinhauer or Robert Littell . . . Cumming has mastered the texture and language of espionage . . . [A Divided Spy is] a fine specimen of a genre headed back toward the Kremlin." -- USA Today "Agent Kell ishell-bent on revenge -- but his quest ends up endangering Britain's nationalsecurity.
