'Immersive  intriguing  and intelligent - incredibly impressive  up there with the best in the
genre' Lee Child ________________________ It is the summer of 1961 and the brutal Cold War
between East and West is becoming ever more perilous. Two young prodigies from either side of

but they are about to compete in the deadliest game ever played. Shadowing them is Greta  a
ruthless resistance fighter who grew up the hard way in the forests of Lithuania  but who is
now hunting down some of the most dangerous men in the world. Men who are also on the radar of
Vassily  perhaps the Soviet Union's greatest spymaster. A man of cunning and influence  Vassily
was Yulia's minder during her visit to the West  but even he could not foresee the consequences
of her meeting Michael. When the world is accelerating towards an inevitable and catastrophic
conflict  what can just four people do to prevent it? Epic in scope  The Partisan is a thrill
ride like no other  taking you from the hallowed halls of Cambridge to the grimy depths of the
Moscow underworld  from 1960s London to the Eastern Front in the Second World War.
