The former director of the FBI turned author was sacked by Donald Trump in 2017 and was recently interviewed by the Secret Service in an ongoing feud with the man now back in the White House. Writing legal thrillers is probably a welcome escape from that world. Comey was also an assistant district attorney prior to working for the Bureau, which is reflected in his politically charged, high stakes legal dramas. FDR Drive is the third in his series featuring federal prosecutor Nora Carleton.

They’ve often thought it was all over… well, it is now. Gary Lineker has broadcast his last show for the BBC, so perhaps we, the advertising industry, should apologize for the fact that he ever broadcast his first one. Because Lineker’s stellar media career, even though it’s now come to an ignominious end, is all our fault. More specifically, the fault of the agency I worked at - BMP DDB.

Espionage fiction revels in existential cat and mouse games and there are a few of those here this month. Also a speculative thriller, plenty of political intrigue, spy-adjacent reads and two nonfiction titles to round off. Female authors are helping to boost espionage fiction’s appeal. Mrs Spy by journalist/midwife MJ Robotham has action, wry humour and a smart female protagonist in an enjoyable reimagining of the 1960s cultural and political milieu.
