'Intelligent and explosive' Paul Burke, CrimeTime

'What the ever expanding world of espionage fiction needs, it turns out, is a Yale-educated Millennial field operative who dresses in Weezer T-shirts and knows his way around a semi-automatic . . . a novel as cool as it is accomplished, that knits together action, tradecraft and quippy dialogue with flair' Vogue (named a Best Book of the Year)

'[A] globe-trotting spy adventure . . . Idov balances modern-day intrigue with Cold War flashbacks, tracing spy bloodlines from the former Soviet Union into today' Paste Magazine

'If you are in the mood for a high-stakes global espionage novel, with secret agents jet-setting all over the world, you have come to the right place. . . . cleverness and subterfuge abound, followed by a believable, real-world sort of denouement' BookPage

'A ripping gem of a novel. . . . Entertaining, rocketing, and unforgettable, The Collaborators is not to be overlooked' Shelf Awareness
