Why read it?

1 author picked Invasion as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

I nearly put this book back on the shelf, but glad I didn’t. This is a brilliant plot about a missing spy and two operatives sent to find a captured colleague in MI6 amidst Chinese and Taiwan tension that might turn to war at any time.

I found it interesting that the author is a BBC Correspondent with bags of experience about eastern politics. His attention to detail is really good, and there is plenty of tension, action, and atmosphere. A good read for those who like plenty of informed detail in a good plot.
