Book Description
“Great talent, great imagination, and real been-there done-that authenticity make this one of the year’s best thriller debuts.” —Lee Child “Not since Fleming charged Bond with the safety of the world has the international secret agent mystique been so anchored with an insider’s reality.” —Noah Boyd, New York Times bestselling author of Agent X and The Bricklayer “A real spy proves he is a real writer—and a truly deft and inventive one. Spycatcher is a stunning debut.” —Ted Bell, New York Times bestselling author of Warlord A real life former field officer, Matthew Dunn makes an extraordinary debut with Spycatcher, a masterwork of international espionage fiction that crackles with electrifying authenticity. Fans of Daniel Silva, Robert Ludlum, Brad Thor, and Vince Flynn will be on the edge of their seats as intelligence agent Will Cochrane—working on a joint covert mission for the CIA and MI6—sets out to capture a brilliant and ruthless Iranian spy. Timely and gripping, Spycatcher rockets the reader into a shadowy world of terrorism and counter-terrorism, and holds them in an iron grip until the last pulse-pounding page is turned.

Book Description
Peter Wright’s Spycatcher received more legal attention than any other book in history. What started as an attempt by the Secret Service to muzzle a former M15 officer ended with the British Government on trial in Australia. The 1986 case made Spycatcher an international bestseller. And it made the young lawyer who had turned the ‘impossible’ case in Wright’s favour – Malcolm Turnbull – an international sensation. In The Spycatcher Trial, originally released in 1988, Turnbull gives a full account of arguably the highest-profile Australian case of all time, discussing Wright’s motives in publishing his dossier of facts and those of Margaret Thatcher and the British Government in relentlessly pursuing it. Above all, Turnbull recreates the drama of the trial that caught the imagination of the world and changed the life of the man who would become Australia’s 29th Prime Minister.

Book Description
Matthew Dunn uses his experience as a former MI6 field officer to bring transfixing realism to Slingshot, his third Spycatcher novel featuring Will Cochrane—MI6’s, and now the CIA’s, most prized asset and deadliest weapon. In Slingshot, Cochrane is ordered to recover a mysterious document stolen by a Russian Foreign Intelligence Service (SRV) traitor working for a former high-ranking East German Stasi officer. The officer, years before, had instigated a secret pact between Russian and U.S. generals. The agreement stipulated that should it be broken, an assassin would immediately be set loose after an unknown target. The SRV has sent their own version of Cochrane, a cold-blooded, brilliant operative, to retrieve the document, pitting spycatcher against spycatcher. Slingshot, with its cat-and-mouse espionage, brutal action, and complex protagonist, is a must-read for fans of Robert Ludlum and Lee Child.

Book Description
On the run from the CIA, Intelligence operative Will Cochrane must uncover a diabolical spymaster at the center of a devastating international conspiracy On an assignment in Norway, Will Cochrane is shocked to see an eminent Russian spymaster—code-named Antaeus—whom Will is sure he killed three years ago . . . Will reports to Langley immediately and their response is emphatic: Antaeus must not be touched. Further inquiries require Project Ferryman clearance. Then he sees Antaeus's men execute those Will was sent to protect, and Will decides to take a shot at the spymaster. But the elusive spy slips his grasp again, and both the CIA and MI6 order him to surrender at once. Now the only way to save his career—and his life—is to get inside the U.S. and expose the truth behind Project Ferryman. But to accomplish that he's got to outmaneuver four deadly Russian assassins and an elite FBI team controlled by officials who will stop at nothing to keep their secrets safe.
