At Coinkydink Publishing, our authors take you across continents and through time – into the hidden world of espionage where new secrets are uncovered, into the extraordinary lives of people whose journeys inspire, and finally to the table, where culinary delights celebrate culture, connection, and creativity.
From co-founding America’s first feminist law firm to winning a landmark Supreme Court case for pregnant teachers, Jane fought—and beat—the system that tried to silence women.
Armed with a briefcase and an iron will, she changed not only the law, but the lives of generations to come.
THE WORD IS OUT
"Bickford's gripping portrayals of the espionage world and his book's bleak ending invite comparison to le Carré's 'The Spy Who Came in From the Cold', and Graham Greene's timeless classic 'The Human Factor'.
"Drawing on his vast knowledge of the complex and dangerous workings of the UK's intelligence agencies, David Bickford has created a fascinating world of international intrigue, featuring a female protagonist who is cunning, ferocious and unstoppable. 'Katya - The Informer' is a whirlwind spy novel that will leave you breathless and impatient for a sequel.'
"Superb. Masterful storytelling. And an authoritative insight into the secret world and its flawed yet remarkable inhabitants. Highly recommended."
“Highly compelling, assured, with that jangling ring of authenticity.”
“A tightly wound plot of intrigue, corruption and the terrible dilemmas involved in fighting the war on terror. Bickford uses his inside knowledge of intelligence to crackling effect.”
“David Bickford has used his inside knowledge and experience of Britain’s Security & Intelligence Agencies to write an immensely readable modern thriller. Placed against a background of contemporary international politics and intrigue, it is a fast moving read which is both compelling and frightening.”
