  In the shadows of London, a quiet shopkeeper is living a dangerous double life.
  
  Adolf Verloc appears ordinary—a husband, a small business owner, a man who keeps to himself. But behind the dusty windows of his shop lies a web of espionage, anarchists, and secret orders from foreign powers. Pressured to prove his usefulness, Verloc becomes entangled in a reckless plot that spirals far beyond his control.
  
  As the scheme unfolds, the consequences ripple through the lives closest to him—especially his wife, Winnie, whose quiet loyalty is tested in ways she never imagined. What begins as political intrigue quickly becomes a devastating story of betrayal, manipulation, and the human cost of extremism.
  Joseph Conrad was a renowned novelist known for his psychologically complex stories and explorations of moral conflict. Writing in English as his third language, Conrad produced influential works such as Heart of Darkness, Lord Jim, and The Secret Agent. Published in 1907, The Secret Agent is widely regarded as one of the earliest and most powerful novels about political extremism and modern terrorism.

  From British journalist and bestselling author Tom Bradby, Yesterday’s Spy is a brilliantly plotted historical espionage novel about a father searching for his disappeared son against the backdrop of the 1953 coup in Tehran  
   
  London, 1953. Harry Tower is a recently widowed and world-weary British spy, out of favor and down on his luck. After a night spent drinking away his sorrows, he is awakened by a phone call with chilling news. His estranged son Sean has  
  gone missing in Tehran after writing a damning article about the involvement of government officials in the opium trade. Harry springs to action, eager to reunite with his son and atone for past wrongs. 
   
  When he arrives in Tehran, a city roiling with political dissatisfaction and on the brink of a historic coup, Harry joins forces with Sean’s Iranian girlfriend, Shahnaz—seemingly the only other person interested in finding the disappeared journalist.  
   
  Harry’s career as a spy soon proves perfect training for this much more personal mission as American, British, Iranian, and French players flit in and out of the scene. But as the first attempt at a coup in the city fails and foreign powers jockey  
  for oil, money, and influence, Sean’s disappearance takes on a more sinister tone. Was he really taken in retribution for his reporting, or is this an attempt to silence a globally significant revelation he was preparing to make? 
   
  Or, most terrifyingly, does Sean’s disappearance have nothing to do with him at all? Has Harry’s past caught up to them?
