Killing Eve meets The Thursday Murder Club in this exhilarating thriller, introducing retired spy Maggie Bird.

'The Spy Coast is The Thursday Murder Club on steroids' SAGA Magazine

'I loved it. A hugely entertaining read!' ANN CLEEVES

NOW A SUNDAY TIMES TOP 5 BESTSELLER!

Maggie Bird is many things. A chicken farmer. A good neighbour. A seemingly average retiree living in the seaside town of Purity. She's also a darned good rifle shot. And she never talks about her past.

But when an unidentified body is left on Maggie's driveway, she knows it's a calling card from old times. It's been fifteen years since the failed mission that ended her career as a spy, and cost her far more than her job.

Step forward the 'Martini Club' - Maggie's silver-haired book group (to anyone who asks), and a cohort of former spies behind closed doors. With the help of her old friends - and always one step ahead of the persistent local cop - Maggie might still be able to save the life she's built.

The Spy Coast is the first novel in the Martini Club series.

'Gerritsen is a born storyteller, and this new series showcases her talents more than ever. Irresistible and highly recommended!' LEE CHILD

'Echoes of Richard Osman but Gerritsen offers us a darker and consistently exciting thriller' THE MAIL ON SUNDAY

'Action-packed pages, G-force twists and turns, and a platoon of fascinating characters' DAVID BALDACCI
