'It's just so exciting to see a powerful female character like Sarah Black . . . This is a fast-paced espionage thriller that feels fresh and exciting . . It will keep you up far too late!' - Holly Watt

'If you like fast-paced, slick spy thrillers, this one's for you!' - NetGalley reviewer, ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

---------------

The spy game has a brand new player . . .

Sarah Black is startlingly smart and super frustrated . . . while her fellow fresh graduates are signing away their souls to square mile internships, she is sabotaging civil service exams and beating any chess opponent who dares face her. Surely there has to be more to life?

Enter, Michael.

Enigmatic, suave, and looking for a new recruit to his band of elite spies. His offer is irresistible, and Sarah leaps into the world of international espionage without hesitation.

But when Michael hears rumours of a catastrophic attack on an oil pipeline in the Caucasus, he whisks Sarah from London to Georgia with a new identity, a meagre brief and no backup.

Thrown into a hostile environment where nothing is as it seems, and no one can be trusted, Sarah must learn the rules of the game quickly, just to survive.

But is she really a player, or merely a pawn?

'Thoroughly entertaining . . . I would pick up the next book by Sharpe without hesitation' - NetGalley reviewer

'Definitely keeps the pages turning!' - NetGalley reviewer

'A really enjoyable spy thriller with a fresh feel and a strong central character' - NetGalley reviewer

'A slick fast paced espionage thriller that leans heavily into atmosphere, deception and the psychological uncertainty of entering the intelligence world for the first time' - NetGalley reviewer

'Bond, Bourne . . . now Black. Sharpe has served up a spy novel for the 21st century and a magnificent protagonist to lead it. Sarah Black is bold, brainy, and badass! And believable too - this story is as authentic as it is exciting, from the magnificently crafted cast of characters to the incredibly well-drawn locations. Gripping, pacy, and intelligent, I couldn't put it down' - Daniel Aubrey, author of Dark Island

'The Recruit introduces an impressive, complex, resourceful recruit to British espionage, and a world that is shabbier, darker, more ambiguous and far more compromised than the MI6 of James Bond. But it's every bit as tense and exciting . . . this is a sharply written thriller that is also sharply contemporary' - Michael Russell, author of the Stefan Gillespie thrillers

---------------

The Recruit is the first instalment of L.D. Sharpe's series of modern spy thrillers. Perfect for fans of Mick Herron, I.S. Berry, Ava Glass and David Goodman.
