I’m half n half. Spy-ish contemporary London. Brits vs Russians. We are aware how vicious Russians are. And how annoyingly cool the brits are.

Young female spy rescues adorable doctor in a midnight run across London. Big challenge to avoid ring of steel cameras and scary cars chasing them.

Serious themes but awkward, not funny but not too serious either. I think it would be more fun if I knew London so I could follow their adventures.

Ps loved the early Koontz/Odd books. Always thought he beat King hands down.
