The first Robert Harris book I ever read was actually the first work of fiction he wrote, and that was Fatherland. It's possibly still the best work of fiction he has produced but that doesn't mean you shouldn't give the rest of them a go as well.

After Fatherland came Enigma, and then I discovered he had written a book about the Hitler Diaries called Selling Hitler which is absolutely terrific. Equally good was his biography of Bernard Ingham, the much feared Press Secretary under Margaret Thatcher.

Come to think of it I also really enjoyed An Officer and a Spy about the Dreyfuss Affair.

He's a talented fella is Robert.

Stay safe
