Piece Epithetical Books A Colder War (Thomas Kell #2)

Flawed hero in the middle book of three. Lots of action and suspense along with what the author calls "trade craft"--how spies go about their business. Personally had a problem with Kell's sudden and obsessive romance with a younger woman, but perhaps that's just part of his flawed character. That and his relationship with Amelia, his manipulative boss.Oh, and Jot Davies is high on my list of narrators I enjoy.

A really suspenseful spy thriller, Thomas Kell is a disgraced spy whos looking for redemption.He gets hes chance when the head of MI6 is killed in a mysterious plane crash in Turkey.Knell is sent to Istanbul, its gripping an fast paced. Cumming vividly describes the Turkish capital perfectly.

A spy thriller with a slow paced plot.I was excited to receive this book as part of goodreads giveaway. I had heard a lot about its prequel A foreign country and was eager to get started on this one. The slow placed plot was a major disappointment, aren't spy stories supposed to be racy from the word go? Thomas Kell as a character who is a disgraced spy is good and intriguing. Although slow to begin with the last 150 pages is where the action lies and is a reader's delight from that point. Gist:

This is the second book with Thomas Kell, a British spy who was out of service for awhile, and is taking assignments trying to prove that he can take full appointment. In the first book he helps his boss, Amelia, with whom he has a good friendship. This book stands alone without have read the first, but the relationship between Kell and Amelia has more meaning when you know that background. Kell is sent to Istanbul to investigate the suspicious death of an operative in Ankara. Prior to that

Okay, confession time. Espionage novels really aren't my thing, but I was prepared to give this one a shot, firstly because I've never read any of the authors work before and secondly because it was chosen for the Richard and Judy Spring Book Club this year. I follow their recommendations religiously and 9 out of 10 times they get it right for my personal reading interests. Unfortunately this time, I was sorely disappointed. As the story begins, the chief of MI6, Amelia Levene, also known as

A new novel by Charles Cumming is always a matter for celebration among fans of thrillers and spy fiction. Cummings thrillers are traditional, fast-moving and marked by a depth of characterisation and by humour that move them beyond the mass of standard page-turners that crowd the shelves in airport book stores. He is a worthy follower of the tradition of John Le Carre. His latest book, A COLDER WAR, is a sequel to his previous novel, A FOREIGN COUNTRY (2012) and follows the career of disgraced

Difficult, difficult fiction book. Duplicate, triplicate naming of dozens and dozens of inputs and intersects. The first half of the read was barely a 2 star. To be plainly honest, I did take it back to the library once and then took it out again months later. And I loved #1 with all the Amelia and Tom Kell introductory structures and the long process to counter the gambit of her adopted son's kidnapping. That one I read from start to finish in 3 days- not an easy read but nothing hard to grasp.
