-- Charlotte PhilbyWe 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.
-- John LawtonThe prose is beguiling – Alice Munro meets John le Carré.
-- Fiona Erskine‘A mesmerising, evocative novel in which characterisation and narrative tension are in perfect balance.’
