A riveting read . . . with a corker of a twist.
*Telegraph*
[I]mmersive and engaging.
*Guardian*
V2 is a stunning achievement; a gripping page-turner that remains
highly thought-provoking.
*Daily Express*
An immersive thriller set against a tense historical backdrop . . .
For all its pace - you will zip through it in no time - the rewards
are in the meta-story. But Harris's deceptively effortless prose
means you barely notice. The effect is one of total immersion: you
can feel the cold, taste the bacon sandwiches and imagine the
trolleys squeaking across the floor.
*Financial Times*
I want to be the first to say it: Robert Harris scores a direct hit
with V2. I was enthralled.
