A happy throwback to Charles Searle's book signing at Waterstones Carlisle in November 🥳

The Hooded Man was published in October, and it's another great book for the historical fiction fans: set in 1937 France, a war hero is blackmailed into spying for the state to stop a terrorist coup. Torn between duty and conscience, he navigates a perilous world of betrayal, espionage, and shifting loyalties in a desperate bid to save the Republic from enemies on both extremes ✨

We're delighted that Charles had a brilliant event 🥳
