  1. Mick Herron’s Jackson Lamb is first class anti-Bond entertainment and in a way so too is Ben The Mac of The Times ... and if you like real fact based espionage tales of the unexpected try Beyond Enkription where Newcastle Brown and lager rule rather than effeminate martinis.

    If ever there was a bunch of spies that despised the status quo in MI6 when John le Carré’s couch potatoes and Ian Fleming ruled the reading roosts then Pemberton's People surely deserve the gold medal.

    However, if you do read Beyond Enkription, it is an enthralling read as long as you don’t expect fictional agents like Ian Fleming's incredible 007 to save the world or John le Carré’s sluggard yet illustrious Smiley to send you to sleep with his delicate diction, sophisticated syntax and placid plots.

    For some Amazonians Beyond Enkription may be a free read but no matter what don't miss a trip to the advert free website at TheBurlingtonFiles. It's a museum of espionage exhilaration and true but oft sordid tales of the unexpected. PS Don’t forget the FaireSansDire website link on TheBurlingtonFiles home page.
