Greg Mosse's first career was in theatre as actor, director & writer. He has lived and worked in Paris, New York, Los Angeles and Madrid. Having worked as an interpreter at a variety of international institutions, in 2015 Greg returned to theatre. Since then, he has written and produced 25 plays and musicals. He took advantage of 2020's lockdown to fulfil a long-term ambition to write a powerful thriller.

"Equally good at derring-do and dialogue... Mosse displays admirable audacity. One of the best thrillers of 2022." The Times---"This is exactly the sort of big, meaty, ambitious thriller that the market needs. I haven't read a book like this since I AM PILGRIM." Anthony Horowitz---"A heart-thumping race against time." Saga Magazine---"A clever, fast-paced thriller with incredible world building... an impressive debut with a cinematic narrative style waiting to be adapted for the screen." The Independent---"Superb - there's an ominous drumbeat throughout, and pace and tension, and a subtle and scarily plausible dystopia - and above all there's main character Alex Lamarque, who could be one of the greats. Greg Mosse writes like John Le Carre's hip grandson." Lee Child---"Absorbing and intricately plotted." The Telegraph---"Fast and absorbing, action-packed and loaded with a dark conspiratorial atmosphere... This is ambitious and inventive storytelling, an impressive debut." Crime Fiction Lover---"An utterly satisfying story set in a forensically detailed dystopic future which is too close for comfort." Lesley Thomson.
