Brilliantly evocative of the insidiousness, paranoia and mistrust of the Soviet period. A thrilling read

We all start out from Graham Greeneland - the journey across it, even out of it, is what matters.

Sarah Armstrong cuts her own path ... an enviable talent for location and detail. She may be new to spy-noir but I think the master himself would endorse The Starlings of Bucharest - an enthralling Greeneland tale of an innocent young man out of his depth in a cold, cold war.

The prose is beguiling - Alice Munro meets John le Carre.
