I’ve finally had a chance to read the new Gerald Seymour novel Beyond Recall and a new page has been added for the book.
Just a quick note that the new Gerald Seymour novel, Beyond Recall, is published today in the UK by Hodder books.
I’ve not got my copy yet so a review will follow after I’ve had a chance to read it.
A cover image and the blurb for the next Gerald Seymour novel, titled Beyond Recall, have now appeared online.
Gary – ‘Gaz’ – Baldwin is a watcher, not a killer. Operating with a special forces unit deep in Syria, he is to sit in a hide, observe a village, report back and leave.
But the appalling atrocity he witnesses will change his life forever.
Before long, he is living as a handyman on the Orkney islands, far from Syria, far from the army, not far enough from the memories that have all but destroyed him.
‘Knacker’ is one of the last old-school operators at the modern MI6 fortress on the Thames. He presides over the Round Table, a little group who meet in a pub and yearn for simpler, less bureaucratic times.
When news reaches Knacker that the Russian officer responsible for the Syrian incident may be in Murmansk, northern Russia, he sets in motion a plan to kill him. It will involve a sleeper cell, a marksman and other resources – all unlikely to be sanctioned by the MI6 top brass, so it must be done off the books.
But first, he will need a sure identification. And for that, he needs a watcher…
Full of surprise, suspense and betrayal, Beyond Recall is a searching novel of moral complexity and a story of desperate survival.
Beyond Recall is published in hardback in the UK on 9 January 2020.
Today the official Gerald Seymour Facebook page was updated with some information on the next novel.
Have just gone through the copy edit of the new story. It is Beyond Recall, set in the dark cold waters north of the Arctic Circle and in the wilderness territory between the Norwegian frontier and the Russian city of Murmansk. There the Russian navy’s main strike force is based which makes it a security conscious location (!), and one I much enjoyed visiting. This is ‘front line’ territory in the newly chilled Cold War.

Sounds like it could be a good one. For now I’m assuming it will be published in January 2020.
