Description
In a breathtakingly real fiction debut, Eddy introduces undercover cop Grace Flint, a heroine who will appeal to male and female readers for her quick-thinking, fearless cool. Beaten almost to death in an international operation, Grace is now back on duty. But noone is convinced she has healed inside.
Reviews / Votes
Not since Modesty Blaise has spy literature seen a heroine as determined and spunky as Flint...looks as though she may have some pretty good commercial legs - TIMEA welcome debut with a heroine volcanic enough for a series - KIRKUS REVIEWS
Slick, ultra-violent thriller - LITERARY REVIEW
Eddy never underestimates the reader... The attention to detail is intense and the writing's stylish with many unexpected moments - MIRROR
Flint is cold, absolutely resolute, and refreshingly original - a fine heroine in an accomplished first novel. Eddy, an investigative reporter for London s Sunday Times, wisely leaves the door open for succeeding volumes in what one hopes will become the Grace Flint series - BOOKLIST
