"A Bird in Winter" is a gripping thriller by Louise Doughty that follows Heather "Bird," a seasoned intelligence officer who abruptly abandons her life and goes on the run. As she navigates a path filled with disguises and deceptions, Bird confronts the haunting question: does she fear being captured or being forgotten? Reviews "Louise Doughty's ability to create complex, often flawed protagonists who retain our sympathy is one of her hallmarks. 'A Bird in Winter' is another fast-paced thriller with a middle-aged female navigating male-dominated corridors of power—this time British intelligence." — Lucy Popescu "A Bird in Winter is part thriller and part reflective psychological novel; I enjoyed both the exciting on-the-run scenes and the quieter intervals in the cold northern landscapes where she settles in and tries to blend into the snowy background in an isolated village." — BelEdit Book Reviews "Louise Doughty's 'A Bird in Winter' is a gripping, introspective thriller that delves into the psyche of a woman whose life has been shaped by secrecy and escape." — The Secret Book Review
