A suicide at the ministry of defence. A hand grenade through the door of number ten. A Czech defector with a file worth killing for...
Gavin Lyall (1932-2003) was a Royal Airforce pilot, journalist, and
prolific author of spy and aviation thrillers.
His years as a Royal Air Force pilot lent his fast paced, tautly
written aviation thrillers authenticity. His first novel, The Wrong
Side of the Sky, was inspired by his personal experiences in the
Libyan and Greece and became an international bestseller. He also
worked as a journalist, first with the Picture Post and the BBC,
then as the Sunday Times' aviation correspondent.
'The Secret Servant'' is a first-class piece of work.
