About this listen

Out of her depth, Martha no longer knows who can be trusted.

Escaping failure as an undergraduate and a daughter, not to mention bleak 1970s England, Martha marries Kit - who is gay. Having a wife could keep him safe in Moscow in his diplomatic post. As Martha tries to understand her new life and makes the wrong friends, she walks straight into an underground world of counterespionage.

Critic reviews

"Sarah Armstrong has delivered a mesmerising, evocative novel in which characterisation and narrative tension are in perfect balance." (Barry Forshaw)

At first I thought this was going to be terribly slow and the main character annoyed me because she’s supposed to be intelligent but actually is a bloody idiot and a bit of a princess but I ended up caring what happened to her and it really made me want to go back to Moscow.

Draws you in.

Really good book. The narration, for a start, is a brilliant performance.
I was expecting, to be honest, a crash bank wallop spy thriller to pass a bit of time, but this is much more subtle, much more thoughtful and very rewarding.
Always good for a man to read a book like this!
Looking forward to listening to the second one in this series

Great book.

Evocative, dramatic and beautifully read. The story is subtle and but draws you right in.

Beautiful!
