Description
Winter 1981. Poland is in turmoil. The Communist regime is close to collapse and the CIA wants to help it on its way. They ask for MI6 assistance but insist the MI6 Station in Warsaw is not involved. Why not? And who will the Americans accept?
MI6 agent Thomas Dylan is sent from Moscow. His wife has just witnessed a murder and the Russian authorities want her out of the country. But when Thomas and Julia arrive in Warsaw the bullets start to fly. Two American agents disappear near the Polish lakes, a terrified Polish sailor jumps ship in Middlesbrough, and a Polish peasant claims to have found the lost crown of a medieval King.
Somebody needs to work out what's happening. And quickly. Because back in London a KGB killer is on the loose.
Advance Praise
Critical acclaim for Awakening of Spies (Dylan Series Book 1)
‘This book is authentic and gripping. It is written with great authority and terrific sense of pace. It is the first in what I believe will be an unmissable series of novels.’
– Peter Oborne, Press Awards Columnist of the Year 2012 and 2016
‘I have read Awakening of Spies with great enjoyment...Very impressive – I look forward to the next!’ – James Hamilton-Paterson, Whitbread Prize winner
Marketing Plan
Brian Landers started writing newspaper columns to help pay his university bar bills and since then has written articles for various journals, newspapers and websites.
He was once interviewed for a job at the government spy agency GCHQ in Cheltenham but decided that travelling the world would be more exciting. His first full time role was helping a former Director General of Defence Intelligence and a motley collection of ex-spooks set up a political intelligence unit in the City of London. Out of this sprang the character of Thomas Dylan, a novice who over the years progresses through the labyrinthine world of British Intelligence.
Later, as a director of Waterstone’s and then of Penguin his love of writing was rekindled. His first book, Empires Apart was published in the UK, US and India and was largely written while commuting to work.
He has an MBA from London Business School and in 2018 he was awarded an OBE in the Queen’s Birthday Honours.
