Sanctuary
A secret refuge. A dead spy. A killer hiding in plain sight.
The Sanctuary is supposed to be the safest place in Britain: a discreet rehabilitation centre on the north-east coast where wounded soldiers, damaged intelligence officers and burned-out covert operators go to recover.
But when former MI5 officer Thomas Allbright is found dead on the rocks below the cliffs, Charlie Cooper is sent in undercover to find out whether it was really an accident.
What he finds is a closed community filled with secrets, trauma and people trained to notice every lie. Then a second body is discovered, and Cooper realises the deaths may be connected to something far bigger than the Sanctuary itself...
With the police closing in, his cover fraying, and an unlikely ally at his side, Cooper must expose the killer before they strike again.
Because in a place built to heal broken spies, someone is still playing the old game.
