OUT NOW: Cold Water by Dave Hutchinson

We’re wishing Cold Water by Dave Hutchinson a very happy book birthday!

TO UNCOVER THE TRUTH, YOU MUST RISK EVERYTHING

When Carey Tews retired from Les Coureurs – the clandestine organisation of high-risk smugglers – she swore she’d never go back. Her cover in Hungary was blown, and even if she could have returned, she wouldn’t. That is, until an old friend and lover is found dead in mysterious circumstances.

Back for one last job in a Europe fractured into a hundred tiny principalities, with civil unrest and political instability the norm, she must navigate local authorities, rogue operatives and Russian spies.

What she doesn’t know is that the investigation will take her to places she couldn’t even imagine.

‘A clever, complicated tale of dirty tricks, spies and politics.’ — The Guardian

Cover Reveal: Cold Water by Dave Hutchinson

We’re thrilled to reveal the striking cover for Cold Water by award-winning author Dave Hutchinson!

This stunningly pertinent thriller is perfect for fans Le Carre, William Gibson and Neal Stephenson, and is a standalone addition to Hutchinson’s renowned Fractured Europe Sequence – Europe in Autumn, Europe in Winter, Europe at Midnight and Europe at Dawn.

The Fractured Europe Sequence is currently in the process of being adapted for TV by the BAFTA-winning and Oscar-nominated team at Studiocanal behind 2011’s Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy starring Gary Oldman.

Cold Water will be released in paperback, eBook and audiobook in September 2022.

In a Europe fractured by a flu pandemic and crippled by economic collapse, the continent has fractured into a hundred tiny principalities of ever-shifting loyalties, borders and covert operations.

For Carey Tews, a former operative with Les Coureurs des Bois – a clandestine organisation of high-risk smugglers – Europe and the coureurs are in her past. Her legend in Hungary is blown six way from Sunday, and even if she could go back to working in Europe, she wouldn’t. That is until an old friend and lover is declared dead in mysterious circumstances. 

 What she doesn’t know is that the investigation will take her to places she couldn’t even imagine.
