Northern Spy Promo Book: A Gripping Thriller of Sisterhood and Intrigue in Northern Ireland
The Northern Spy Promo Book delivers a tense, atmospheric journey through the complexities of loyalty, family, and the divided politics of Northern Ireland. A New York Times Bestseller and Reese's Book Club pick, this riveting thriller is part of The Wordy Traveler collection, offering readers an unforgettable look at the modern-day IRA through the gripping story of two sisters caught on opposite sides of a dangerous conflict.
In Northern Spy, Tessa, a BBC producer and new mother, leads a seemingly quiet life in Belfast. However, the undercurrents of tension from the IRA have never fully disappeared since the Good Friday Agreement, and the city remains fraught with bomb threats, security checkpoints, and a constant sense of unease. When news of an IRA robbery flashes on air, Tessa’s life takes a shocking turn—her sister, Marian, is identified in the footage as one of the masked assailants.
Tessa cannot believe Marian, who has always stood against the violence in Northern Ireland, could be involved. She suspects her sister has been coerced or kidnapped, especially since they had just spoken while Marian was supposedly on vacation. However, as Tessa digs deeper into the mystery, she is forced to confront a devastating truth. With her loyalty to Marian at odds with her role as a mother, Tessa must make choices that will test everything she knows about right and wrong, love and duty.
Set against the backdrop of a deeply divided society, Northern Spy is both a heart-pounding thriller and an intimate portrait of motherhood, sisterhood, and moral dilemmas. The story pulls readers into the web of secrets and danger that defines life in Belfast, while also exploring the powerful bond between two sisters. Author Flynn Berry's exquisite writing has earned Northern Spy accolades from The New York Times Book Review and The Washington Post, cementing it as one of the top thrillers of 2021.
