Almost Home (Jenoff) - Book Reviews

Book Reviews
An interesting, unexpected thriller, this tries—and succeeds—to mix romance with the dark arts of espionage ... Written with a flair for place and irony, it paints a very different portrait of the macho world of spooks than the one we're so often treated to, but is none the worse for that. Blessed with an edge-of-the-seat ending, Jenoff's third thriller is the antidote to Bond, leaving you stirred, if not shaken.
Daily Mail (UK)
 

Pam Jenoff has taken a new twist on the spy novel ... if agent Jordan Weiss may not be exactly the next James Bond, ... she may be a very credible, arguably more human, female alternative.
Times (UK)


Part thriller, part romance, Jenoff's story is a tidy package of secret financing, organised crime and a bit of stuff on the side.
Time Out

 
A thrilling story, imaginatively told.
Choice


A cool, contemporary romantic thriller.
Publishers Weekly


...a masterly job of blending romance, friendship, loyalty, greed, spies, the political ambitions of the rich and powerful, and a bit of shady World War II history into a suspenseful and multilayered novel.
Library Journal


This thriller delivers politics and plot.
