Description
A The Times Best Novels Since 1945
One of the 100 best crime novels and thrillers written since 1945, as chosen by the Sunday Times
A British cabinet minister is gunned down on a London street by an IRA assassin. In the wake of national outcry, ill-prepared and poorly briefed, undercover agent Harry Brown is sent into the heart of enemy territory to infiltrate the terrorists.
Harry's Game rewrote the crime fiction genre when it was first published in 1975 and was an instant global bestseller. Gerald Seymour is one of the most respected thriller writers in the world, drawing on his extensive experience as a journalist covering war zones and political hotspots to deliver authentic, morally complex, and utterly gripping spy novels.
'Vibrant with suspense' Evening Standard
'Evokes the atmosphere and smell of the back streets of Belfast as nothing else I have ever read' Frederick Forsyth, Sunday Express
'Devastatingly good' Spectator
'The most enduringly praised Troubles thriller' Guardian
'Edge-of-the-seat reading' Washington Post
'The sort of book that makes you lose track of time' The New York Times
