The Moroccan Girl — Charles Cumming

In the tradition of Jason Matthews' New York Times bestseller The Kremlin's Candidate comes THE MOROCCAN GIRL, a standalone thriller from Charles Cumming, "the heir to John le Carré" (NPR).

Kit Carradine is the successful author of several best-selling novels. When he is approached by MI6 and asked to carry out a simple task on behalf of his country while attending a literary festival in Morocco, he jumps at the chance.

But all is not as it seems. Carradine soon finds himself on the trail of Lara Bartok, a leading figure in Resurrection, a violent revolutionary movement targeting prominent right-wing political figures around the world. Caught between competing intelligence services who want Bartok dead, Carradine faces a choice: to abandon Bartok to her fate or to risk everything trying to save her.
