'Suspenseful, vivid and impossible to put down' TOM HOLLAND

'Laced with thrills' EVIE WYLD

'Utterly gripping' ADAM RUTHERFORD

On the Greek island of Vidos the past lingers like salt in the air. The inhabitants - former members of MI6 - are sent here to be forgotten. Exiled. Either too damaged or too compromised to be allowed to live freely.

For years, residents make the best of their fate - old enemies reconcile, long-lost friends swim together in the warm sea and estranged lovers share a bed once more. But secrets bind tightly. And when one of their own washes up dead, alliances fracture and a tide of suspicion begins to rise.

A vivid reimagining of a real, hidden slice of the British Intelligence Service's history, A Stranger in Corfu is an exquisitely tense and masterfully spun novel about shadowy morality, unravelled secrets and the futility of trying to outrun the past.

批評家のレビュー

Le Carré meets The Durrells - A Stranger is Corfu is a brilliantly atmospheric thriller. Suspenseful, vivid and impossible to put down (TOM HOLLAND)
Imagine the Slow Horses had parents who were also spies. Imagine those parents were on a small island, just off Corfu. Imagine that their chequered pasts might be catching up with them. And then realise you don't need to imagine it because Alex Preston has done it for you with this beautifully taut, clever, classy thriller (NATALIE HAYNES)
Taut, tense and utterly gripping: Preston evokes a wonderfully thrilling story from the dreamy Ioanian. Nothing short of brilliant (ADAM RUTHERFORD)
A beautiful, taut novel laced with the thrills of lives half-lived and never escaped; of friendship, love and relentless betrayal beneath Corfu's blazing sun and the restless, dark sea - where secrets threaten to drown them all. A story that haunts long after the last page (EVIE WYLD)
A stylish literary spy novel in which Agatha Christie meets the Cambridge Five, set on a sun-soaked island off Corfu. Sophisticated and stylishly self-aware, it weaves political intrigue with lyrical prose in an artful reimagining of the classic spy story (SARAH CHURCHWELL)
A gripping thriller that explores the lives shaped - and shattered - by Cold War politics in Europe's southern fringe. Preston captures the fractured legacy of British intelligence and the ghosts it leaves behind with haunting precision. I was captivated from start to finish (PETER FRANKOPAN)
Gripping, dark and clever: spies with troubled backstories; a small island off Corfu; Albania just across the water. It will be huge (SOFKA ZINOVIEFF)
Alex Preston's tale of Cold War spies marooned in Corfu presents an achingly poignant portrait of intersecting lives set against a decades-long canvas spanning seminal moments in Britain's spy story. The simmering plot explodes into violence, but Preston never loses sight of the fact that at the heart of his tale are characters whose luminosity lingers long after the final page is turned. A beautifully written examination of what it means to put your life - and soul - on the line for a cause. A spy novel of the highest calibre (VASEEM KHAN)
I read it in one breathless sitting. A Stranger in Corfu is vivid and compulsive, elegant and clever. I loved it (FRANCESCA SEGAL)
A beautiful, devastating and multi-layered tour de force which brings Greece vividly to life (CHARLES CUMMING)
