“Set in the Cold War era of British Intelligence pitted against Russian webs, Gabriel’s Moon is a quintessential spy novel but anchored by Gabriel Dax as an unassuming recruit to MI6.”
Without frenetic pace and blood spatters, Gabriel’s Moon is one man making peace with his tortured memories and one foot in the slippery world of geo-politics.
Gabriel lives a life haunted by past trauma of a deadly house fire in 1936 that killed his mother. With loose family bonds and an intermittent brotherly relationship, Gabriel has carved out a life of world travels and travel writing. Living his rather ubiquitous life, he is drawn into MI6 as an ‘accidental spy’.
It is his nonchalant, no-fuss approach that makes him an endearing character as he tumbles deeper into espionage networks. He’s not naive, he develops savvy, snappy skills that gives him ways out of precarious situations.
This is the first book in a new trilogy, so now we look forward to the next installment!
