David McCloskey in conversation with Tim Shipman

Presented by Village Books and Alleyn's School.

Join us for an evening with bestselling author ex-CIA analyst David McCloskey to celebrate the publication of his new book The Persian. David will be interviewed by author and journalist Tim Shipman.

David McCloskey returns to his inside knowledge of the Middle East in his fourth novel: a gripping thriller exploring what happens when a loner spy is forced to reckon with the consequences of his deception. From Tehran to Tel Aviv, Istanbul and Stockholm, The Persian traces the rise and downfall of Kamran Esfahani, an Iranian Jew caught in the high stakes struggle between the spy agencies of Israel and Iran, and the secret he’s trying to take to his grave.

David will be interviewed by bestselling author and award-winning journalist Tim Shipman - perhaps best known as Political Editor at The Spectator and author of four books on Brexit, he's also a leading spy fiction expert and on the board of Spybrary.com, for which he also writes.
