'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.
