Synopsis
Paris in 1968—seething with revolutionaries and spies—sees Will Flemyng's world turned upside down, after a mysterious encounter on the metro and a chance revelation from a rival operative
In a city alive with talk of revolution, Will finds himself in the thick of the action, a young spy whose first adventures behind the Iron Curtain have already given him a secret glamour. But now he gets news that threatens the closest and most complicated relationship in his life, with his younger brother. In the unforgettable weeks of a crisis that claims blood and tests his deepest loyalties, Flemyng lives and loves the tumult of a city in which his private fears teach him the secrets that lie beneath the raucous politics of the streets. This is the making of the man whose journey leads to The Madness of July—Will Flemyng, trapped with his friends and enemies in The Paris Spring.

Review
'Naughtie writes with a cool authority reminiscent of that now neglected master of the novel of espionage, William Haggard' Scotsman. 'Although complex this is quite a quick read ... enjoyable' New Books Magazine. 'A concise thriller ... a satisfying and well-conceived novel' The Tablet. 'I enjoyed the twists and turns of the plot, and surprises turn up around every corner ... A very good read' Crimesquad. 'This cracking debut pits brother against brother in a gritty, sprawling epic' Daily Express. 'A hugely gripping and atmospheric read' Alexander McCall Smith, Mail on Sunday. 'Striking character studies' The Sunday Times. '[Flemyng] is an interesting, well-drawn character. Naughtie tells a good story with his much-loved trademark excess of words' The Times. 'James Naughtie's brilliant spy thriller is written with authority as well as a deep understanding of time and place' The Scotsman.
