Product Details

Praise

“[A] spirited debut and series launch . . . Vibrant characters, international intrigue, gritty action, and a wittily acerbic Ian Fleming, too—who could ask for more?”
Publishers Weekly,
starred review

“This debut is more emotional than Fleming’s own Bond novels . . . Nash is a welcome new protagonist who will be welcomed by fans of Kate Atkinson’s Transcription (2018) and Simon Mawer’s Tightrope (2015).”
Booklist

“A deftly penned and simply riveting read with more unexpected plot twists and turns than a Disneyland roller coaster.”
Midwest Book Review

“Huie’s taut spy thriller takes the reader to a Britain and France where the wounds of war are both deep and fresh . . . An auspicious debut.”
—Charlie Lovett, New York Times bestselling author of The Bookman’s Tale

“Post WWII London and Paris serve as a backdrop for a gutsy, damaged heroine who matches wits with a dangerous new enemy. A riveting page-turner!”
—Dianne Freeman, author of the award-winning Countess of Harleigh mystery series

“Huie writes with dry, cracking wit and unflinching heart . . . Filled with intrigue, betrayal, heartache, and danger, Spitfire is a debut not to be missed.”
—Meghan Holloway, author of Once More Unto the Breach

“Gritty and glamorous, Spitfire races through the streets of post-war London and Paris in a twisting story of intrigue and betrayal . . . Livy Nash is exactly my kind of heroine.”
—Julia Kelly, author of The Light Over London

“Meticulously researched with a twisty, compelling plot and a heroine that you root for from the first page, Spitfire combines all the elements of great historical fiction.” 
—Jane Healey, author of The Beantown Girls

“[An] intriguing tale of revenge and redemption.”
—D.M. Quincy, author of the Atlas Catesby mysteries

“Huie has created a hard-bitten, hard-core heroine in Livy Nash, and a perfectly noir spy thriller.”
—Alisa Smith, author of the Lena Stillman series

“If you’re a fan of espionage thrillers, you’ll love Spitfire . . . A fantastic debut novel.”
—Jeanne M. Dickson, author of Grounded Hearts

“An old-fashioned mystery shot through with tragedy; for aficionados of the glamour and romance of spycraft.”
Kirkus Reviews


“Satisfying to the very end . . . A good book and the start of a good series.”
New York Journal of Books

“If you’re after a riveting spy thriller with the added bonuses of an intrepid female protagonist, a fascinating historical setting, and a nuanced depiction of challenging ethical decisions, Spitfire will be a winner.”
BookTrib

“An excellent debut novel . . . Doesn’t get much better than this.”
Red Carpet Crash
