'A delightful blend of humour and high tension – Our Man in Havana for the twenty-first century' Mick Herron
‘Twisty, topical, and often darkly comedic, Pariah is Fesperman at his best' David McCloskey, author of Damascus Station
An adrenaline-fueled thriller about a disgraced comedian turned politician who takes on the role of a lifetime: infiltrating a corrupt Eastern European country to spy on their brutal dictator.
After a humiliating on-set incident, Hal Knight – movie star, comedian and former congressman – retreats to a Caribbean island to drown his career and pride. But when CIA operatives approach him with a wild proposition – to exploit the admiration of Bolrovia’s despot, Nikolai Horvatz – Hal seizes the chance for redemption.
As Horvatz’s guest of honour, Hal faces his greatest acting challenge yet. What begins as simple espionage becomes a deadly battle of wits, with consequences stretching from the palace to Washington.
With Pariah, Dan Fesperman delivers a razor-sharp story of espionage, celebrity and one man’s search for meaning amid power, deception and danger.
