Resumen del Editor

The Times Thrillers of the Year 2020.

The Times Book of the Month.

Gabriela is a senior negotiator in the Foreign Office. When she returns to her young family after a seven-month stint in Moscow, something doesn’t seem right.

Isobel is a journalist on the local paper in Camden. After witnessing a violent attack, she starts to investigate. But someone saw her watching, and is making themselves known in increasingly frightening ways.

As Gabriela’s life begins to unravel, Isobel gets closer to the truth and the two women’s lives converge in this deeply chilling examination of deceit.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"A seriously stylish, hugely compelling mystery: Charlotte Philby redefines a male-dominated genre with her brilliantly complex female characters. I was utterly gripped." (Lucy Foley)

"A Double Life confirms Charlotte Philby as the master of a sub-genre she basically invented, dealing in the dangerous area where working motherhood and international espionage collide. Heart-breaking, gripping and always beautifully written, I can’t wait to see what she does next." (Erin Kelly)

"A Double Life is a wonderful novel." (Holly Watt, winner of the 2019 CWA Ian Fleming Steel Dagger)

Brilliant page turner without an ending

This book deserves both five stars and zero stars.

It's highly suspenseful and compulsive read that leaves you hanging in mid air at the end. This isn't a novel with a poor ending or an unsatisfactory ending. It's a novel without any ending at all. It's also really two almost completely unrelated books tacked together with scotch tape. You keep going because you're used to seemingly unrelated story lines that eventually come together and make sense. Except here they only ever cross paths once tangentially, and that is being generous.

It's as though the author suddenly lost interest and thought, "Why should I bother picking up any of my loose ends or making any of this make any sense or go anywhere? The name Philby will be enough to sell the book."

All that being said, it's extremely well written and a great story that is impossible to put down. Until it suddenly isn't any of those things any more. Ha ha, April fool, go away. Which makes it all the more frustrating.
