"Steeped in recent history, Cumming's third Box 88 novel depicts the international complexities of modern espionage as well as the inseparable intertwining of the political and the personal. Like le Carré and Lawton before him, Cumming is building a modern history through an espionage lens, book by methodical book. An intricate espionage thriller that's both timely and convincing. "

– Kirkus

"Enthralling, haunting . . . Cumming is often compared to John le Carré, but he is his own man—taking the spy thriller to a new level of storytelling, one that illuminates the darkest corners of our modern world."

– Financial Times

"Cumming masterfully orchestrates suspense as the characters' pasts come to bear on their present. . .. This espionage tale grips from the get-go."

– Publishers Weekly

"A compelling exploration of the consequences of realpolitik and the intermingling of the personal with the political."

– The Guardian

"Cumming marshals his twin time frames expertly and illuminates an awful chapter in recent history. A first-rate spy thriller."

– The Mail on Sunday

"This remains one of the finest espionage series going, and KENNEDY 35 never disappoints. Charles Cumming has a great eye for historical detail, which he mixes in seamlessly with all the action to create outstanding thrillers that are not to be missed."

– BookReporter

"As is true in real life, time is not linear and Kite carries the past with him into the present not as history but as living fact. . .. KENNEDY 35 is an engrossing glimpse into a future where we all may have to come to terms with what we have done."
