'A timely, gripping and morally complex thriller' MAIL ON SUNDAY
'Each of Charlotte Philby's novels bring a thought-provoking new angle to her characters - with old favourites and new intrigues emerging. The Second Woman is a page-turning thriller, but again, Philby has created a new sort of spy novel - approaching this world of skulduggery and intrigue from an entirely unique perspective. This is a clever, gripping, unsettling and thoroughly entertaining read' HOLLY WATT
