A Loyal Spy

“Stunning . . . With its complex characters and plot, this thriller feels as if the author has channeled his considerable powers through le Carré by way of Tolstoy, and yet it remains uniquely his own.” —Publishers Weekly, starred review

“A nonstop adventure . . . Every person who is engaged by authors such as Brad Thor will love Simon Conway’s ability to pen the perfect spy story that stays with you long after the tale is over.”—Suspense Magazine

"There is much to admire in this thoughtful thriller."—Booklist

"Sprawling, violent, and contemporary, with whiffs of authenticity that lift it above the crowd." —Spectator

"Complex and detailed . . . A credible, and wholly cynical, tale of dirt, death, and double-dealing, of déraciné anti-heroes for whom perpetual conflict has become both lifeblood and poison." —The Times (London)

"Written by someone who has clearly spent time in the company of the Taliban, accuracy seeps out of every page. . . . fueled by a furious Tom Clancy-style narrative drive." —Daily Mail
"Simon Conway boldly illustrates the anarchy of 'asymmetric warfare.'" —Daily Telegraph

"A Loyal Spy is full of the elements that make a thriller such a joy. Simon has . . . a facility for believable scenes, for convoluted plotting that would confuse Le Carré, and a marvelous range of characters."—Shots

"A Loyal Spy has incredibly well-drawn characters, evocative descriptive passages, and a superbly balanced narrative structure—the twists are unexpected but convincing and the final extended sequence is truly nail-biting. Terrific!"—Misha Glenny, author of McMafia
