The Green Feathers is a very clever 5 star twisty, intriguing fast paced thriller. Full of manipulation, devious characters, twists and pure brilliance, I was absolutely captivated once again!
A brilliant series that I would highly recommend.

No, it's not part of Tesco's Christmas advertisement.
It's The Tip of the Iceberg, a fun thriller to give as a stocking filler.

Phoebe was distraught. This was the very last time she would let Arnold wear her false eyelashes to his club dinner.

A fun evening at the Aspects of Crime Christmas Dinner. The conversation and wine flowed...
A great bunch of crime writers.
Lovely to meet my fellow Hobeck author again @juliewriter.bsky.social

Cracking thriller
From a cabin in the Oxfordshire woods, to a villa overlooking the Straits of Hormuz this book is always engaging, often thrilling and has a big surprise twist in the tail. This was my first Mike Kingdom novel and it won't be my last. Highly recommended.

The Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao provides the perfect backdrop for a tense thriller. Who has been kidnapped and why?
"With his effervescent and wickedly funny style, David Jarvis again excels in crafting a story that screams of real life"

BREAKING: Russia says it has delivered the first two Su-57 jets to Algeria.
The EU is so dependent on Algerian gas.
Why not read, This Is Not a Pipe, an intelligent spy thriller set in the Western Mediterranean?

The Green Feathers has made it to Palau!

In a tropical rainstorm, just make a pot of tea and sit on the balcony with a good book ... that's what this reader did.

The Green Feathers was spotted in the rain forests of Australia. Can I now claim that it has gone global?

Making mescaline from the cacti was a great idea but it knocked out Hamish and gave Miss Brodie the wind something terrible.
Maria on Amazon - 5 stars:
"If you enjoy traditional spy novels with a sprinkle of humour you will love this read.
The main focus is on a character called Empty who I loved and the rivalry between British departments.
Very well written and easy to read."

Janet Rose on Amazon:
"Expertly plotted with characters so well written they jumped off the page and descriptions so vivid I felt I was right there in the centre of the action.
I thoroughly enjoyed the storyline ... I will be reading them all."
