Orphan Monster Spy - Paperback

by Matt Killeen (Author)

Her name is Sarah. She's blonde, blue-eyed, and Jewish in 1939 Germany. And her act of resistance is about to change the world.

"Deeply disturbing and chillingly good."--Elizabeth Wein, New York Times bestselling author of Code Name Verity

"Inglourious Basterds meets Mean Girls."--The Hollywood Reporter

She's a liar. A thief. And the Nazi's worst nightmare.

Sarah's actress mother spent years teaching her how to become someone else. Now her mother is dead and Sarah is hiding in plain sight among the daughters of the Nazi elite. A brilliant con artist, she's out to befriend the daughter of an important scientist and get her hands on the bomb blueprints in his heavily guarded manor.

The more deeply embedded she becomes in this world of monsters, the graver the danger. But she's determined to get her revenge on them all.

Author Biography

Matt Killeen was born in Birmingham, in the UK, back when trousers were wide and everything was brown. Early instruction in his craft included being told that a drawing of a Cylon exploding isn't writing and copying-out your mother's payslip isn't an essay "about my family." Several alternative careers beckoned, some involving laser guns and guitars, before he finally returned to words and attempted to make a living as an advertising copywriter and largely ignored music and sports journalist. He now writes for the world's best loved toy company, as it wasn't possible to be an X-wing pilot. Married to his Nuyorican soul mate, he is parent to both an unfeasibly clever teenager and a toddler who is challenging his father's anti-establishment credentials by repeatedly writing on the walls. He accidently moved to the countryside in 2016.
