'Impressive...an exhilarating blend of psychological probing and terrific action scenes' SUNDAY TIMES
'This is the most exciting new spy series since Slow Horses: catch it now' DAILY MAIL
'Perfect for fans of Herron or Le Carré' THE SCOTSMAN
'Once you start turning pages you will not stop until the final shot' JACK CARR, #1 New York Times bestselling author
Jamie Tulloch and Sam Li never intended to be spies. Jamie, a former exec at a tech company, found himself caught up in a mission and discovered a taste for the secret world while Sam, a burnt-out corporate lawyer, was unexpectedly talent spotted by MI5. When both are plunged into covert training, they find themselves pitted against each other for their final evaluation - Exercise Red Poacher.
Every year, MI6 trainees must evade capture, infiltrate sensitive sites and report back with the right intel, while their peers at MI5 try to stop them. But things take a sinister turn when they witness the apparent murder of one of their fellow recruits. Is it all part of the exercise? Or is someone trying to weaponise this game of spies into something far more deadly?
'Fresh, fierce, and more tense than serving James Bond a stirred martini, David Goodman's Solitary Agents have infiltrated the old boys spy network and are tearing it down from the inside' CALLUM McSORLEY

Critic Reviews
PRAISE FOR MULTI-AWARD WINNER DAVID GOODMAN
Innocents have been caught up in espionage ever since The Thirty-Nine Steps. David Goodman's engrossing thriller offers an ingenious variation on the trope. Goodman combines traditional elements - the nods to Buchan, Fleming and le Carré - with the topicality of 2020s technology and the threat from Russia
