One title on the list:RESTLESS BY WILLIAM BOYDRead about another novel on the list.
Forget Mr Kiss Kiss Bang Bang - Boyd's novel has a female spy in the leading role. And as a stomach-churning scene with a pencil shows, she may be quiet but she certainly isn't to be underestimated. A rollicking read.
