  'Oliver Harris is an outstanding writer' The Times 'One of our finest thriller writers' Evening Standard'Firmly in the Mick Herron class' Telegraph A young Korean woman disappears on a visit to Britain. At first, Jinhee Lee seems to be just another missing tourist. But when Katherine Taylor, a senior analyst on the MI6 North Korea desk, begins to investigate, she uncovers evidence of something far more alarming: a biological warfare plot with potentially catastrophic consequences. As the threat grows, Katherine contacts Elliot Kane, sent to keep the lights on at the British Embassy in Pyongyang after the mysterious death of his predecessor, Douglas Hemsley. Her message contains two cryptic words: winter mirror. The phrase is immediately familiar to Elliot. He has seen it before - in a Korean poem Douglas left behind before his death. What begins as a search for a missing woman soon becomes a race against time, both in London and in the heart of North Korea. As Katherine works to prevent disaster in Britain, Elliot finds himself drawn into an equally urgent conspiracy in Pyongyang, in a society shaped by secrecy, surveillance and fear. A gripping literary thriller of espionage, deception and geopolitical intrigue, Winter Mirror confirms Oliver Harris as one of the most intelligent and compelling voices in contemporary fiction. PRAISE FOR THE SHAME ARCHIVE'Enthralling ... Harris steadily cranks up the tension... What really lifts the book is the seemingly authentic portrayal of the sleazy interface where Britain's venal ruling elite meets Russian dirty money' Financial Times 'A relentless thriller that deep dives into the digital battlefields where future wars will be fought' Irish Times Captivating and horrifying at once, a completely plausible evocation of the putrid morass that is the British Establishment and its craven capitulation to Russian money... Oliver Harris is squarely in the territory of the greats: Greene and le Carré but also the modern masters, Mick Herron and Adam Brookes' Manda Scott 'A flawless political thriller: gripping, smart and hugely enjoyable' Charlotte Philby
