Brief description: Charles Cumming is the Sunday Times and New York Times bestselling author of thirteen novels, including A Spy by Nature, Typhoon, The Trinity Six, the Thomas Kell trilogy, and the BOX 88 series. He is also the screenwriter of the Gerard Butler action movie Plane.
Review Quotes: "Steeped in recent history, Cumming's third Box 88 novel depicts the international complexities of modern espionage as well as the inseparable intertwining of the political and the personal. Like le Carré and Lawton before him, Cumming is building a modern history through an espionage lens, book by methodical book. An intricate espionage thriller that's both timely and convincing.
