Marxist Angola, West Africa,1970s.The Cold War.
A gifted Irish student is drawn into a brutal Civil War in Angola and slowly becomes part of the very world he once feared.
He believes he's there for a routine technical internship. He's never been so wrong.
Unwittingly drawn into a shadow world of intelligence operatives, cut-outs, and deniable missions, McKenna soon discovers that everyone around him is hiding something, including the people who sent him there.
Twenty years later he uncovers the truth, and now rival intelligence services want him silenced.
From Las Vegas poker tables to the scorched streets of Luanda, The Cuckoo Asset is a tense, atmospheric espionage thriller steeped in realism, betrayal, and survival.
Perfect for readers of John le Carré and Frederick Forsyth.
