A fine book this, for those who enjoy vintage Le Carre
A fine book this, for those who enjoy vintage Le Carre
Moskva was one of the most impressive spy thrillers of 2016 . . . Nightfall Berlin is even better. Grimwood's portrayal of dark and frightening East Berlin is excellent and he is skilful at describing the politics of espionage
A gripping Cold War tale that manages to be original as well as give a nod to classic John Le Carre
The atmosphere and tension perfectly pitched this excellent Cold War thriller with memorable well-drawn characters is compulsive reading
A twisty tale of Cold War conflict, which sees tormented intelligence officer Tom Fox caught up in a dark story of establishment lies and long-buried secrets
A book that pulls you in, teaches you something and gives you a protagonist you can't get enough of ... If you liked Ian McEwan's The Innocent, you'll love this evocation of Berlin at the other end of the Cold War
The new Le Carre . . . an absolutely brilliant page turner . . . if you love thrillers, Jack Grimwood is a name you need to remember
Nightfall Berlin is just fabulous. So atmospheric, so elegantly written. The character, Major Tom Fox is intriguing... like Michael Connelly's Harry Bosch, or like early le Carre. I really recommend it. I just disappeared into it totally.
A gripping Cold War thriller where life hangs by a thread. Dark secrets from the lawless rubble of WW2 threaten world peace and the family of British spy Tom Fox. After the success of Moskva, Grimwood works his magic on the grey but edgy streets of East Berlin. A powerful, addictive, twisty tale where no-one can be trusted.
Spring's best thriller
Note-perfect ... Jack Grimwood is about to become your new favourite thriller writer
An extraordinarily atmospheric and immersive read ... escapism at its best
The rejuvenation of the espionage thriller continues apace with Nightfall Berlin
The thriller of the summer ... Grimwood raises the stakes in this dark, twisty tale of Cold War conflict
The superior spy thriller of the year. Le Carré fans will be delighted
If you love thrillers Jack Grimwood is the name you need to remember...
Mesmerising, surefooted, vividly realised . . . something special in the arena of international thrillers
A compulsive and supremely intelligent thriller from a master stylist
Even better than Child 44 . . . A blizzard of exciting set pieces, superbly realized
Grimwood is a damned fine writer
The writing is elegant, the dialogue razor sharp, the characters drawn economically but effectively, and the action is unrelenting
Jack Grimwood, a.k.a. Jon Courtenay Grimwood, was born in Malta and christened in the upturned bell of a ship. He grew up in the Far East, Britain and Scandinavia. Apart from novels, he writes for national newspapers including The Times, Telegraph, Independent and Guardian. Jon is two-time winner of the BSFA Award for Best Novel, with Felaheen and then End of the World Blues. His literary novel, The Last Banquet, published under the name Jonathan Grimwood, was shortlisted for Le Prix Montesquieu 2015. His work has been translated into fifteen languages. He is married to the journalist and novelist Sam Baker. Nightfall Berlin is his second thriller.
