Second Skin

Second Skin Synopsis

'Bruce-Lockhart has done it again. A brilliant follow up to The Lizard.' - Charles Cumming. 'The smells, tastes and surrounds of Greece - and most of all, Haston's simmering desire for Amara - rise off the pages like the heat on a midday beach.' - Financial Times.

'A fast and twisty thriller.' - Sun. 'Gripping…terribly good.' - Daily Express. 'Thrilling espionage…high octane.' - Sunday Post.

'Genius and a sinfully good read.' - The Field. Five years after a murderous encounter on the island of Paros, Alastair Haston's world is upended by a startling discovery: a son he never knew existed. Desperate to learn more, he travels to Athens, but his pursuit is intercepted when MI6 intervenes, coercing him into a high-stakes espionage mission - to infiltrate a suspected mafia operation intent on abducting his son.

As the chase unravels across the Mediterranean, Alistair has a chilling revelation, could the spectre of his past be returning to taunt him? Could the answer lie in that fateful, deadly summer on Paros five years ago?
