A Reluctant Spy and The Fourth Woman by Roselyn Teukolsky

A gripping spy thriller in which skydiving meets cybercrime at the highest levels of academia.

A ransomware attack. An online date that takes a menacing turn. A mind-game that invades her entire household.

Praise for Roselyn’s novels

"Roselyn Teukolsky's A Reluctant Spy is a fabulous read -- smart, engrossing, and so utterly compelling I raced through the pages at warp speed. An outstanding debut! I can't wait to read what Teukolsky pens next!"

— Karen Dionne, #1 internationally bestselling author of The Marsh King's Daughter and The Wicked Sister

“In A Reluctant Spy, a woman’s life is turned upside down in the wake of her husband’s death when she is approached with a shocking invitation to continue his secret work as a spy… A captivating story of a woman who untangles mysteries... A great fit for anyone seeking an unconventional take on the spy story, one seasoned with self-discovery and personal growth along with the usual excitement and intrigue.”

— Kirkus Reviews

“In The Fourth Woman, a woman uses the power of technology to fight back against a stalker who’s embedded himself in her life in more ways than one…Madeline is a compelling narrator with the tech savvy of Stieg Larsson’s Lisbeth Salander and the brassy audacity of Sara Paretsky’s V.I. Warshawski.”
