Soft cover. Condition: Fine. No Jacket. 1st Edition. First edition paperback. Book in near fine condition spine straight, some small bumping to the edges, pages and text block clean. Withdrawn by the publisher after it was found that sections of the books had been plagiarised from other spy novels. An elite spy risks his biggest… asset to defeat an insidious international organization hell-bent on selling the most sensitive state secrets to the highest bidder. Jonathan Chase, the CIA's top field agent, is sworn to protect and serve the United States at all costs. But after a brutal period of captivity during the Korean War, Chase developed an agenda of his own: to use his mastery of war to create peace. His new target: the Zero Directorate, a cabal of rogue assassins who have embarked on a campaign to systematically interrogate and kill seasoned secret agents from across the globe. But the Directorate has set an elaborate trap, and for Chase the whole mission involves an inescapable paradox. As the world's preeminent operative, the closer he gets to the cabal, the closer the cabal gets to their primary target.

First Edition. [Spy thriller] FIRST EDITION. Octavo (20 x 13cm), pp.278; [2]. Publisher's illustrated softcovers. A paperback original. Fine/as new. Published on 3rd November 2011, this scandalous debut novel had been withdrawn by 8th November after readers recognised several plagiarised sections. After much scrutiny, it was fou…nd that this Frankenstein's monster of a novel was a stitched-together patchwork of passages from acclaimed spy writers such as Charles McCarry, Robert Ludlum, and the James Bond authors John Gardner and Raymond Benson, with very little original material. A scandal ensued, the New Yorker, Wall Street Journal, and Guardian all gave the charlatan his fifteen minutes of fame/notoriety, an apology letter was issued by the scolded 'author' [real name Quentin Rowan], who duly returned to the shadows, as cockroaches do.

A first edition, first printing published by Mulholland/Hodder Books in 2011. Soft cover in near fine condition with some wear to the corners. No inscriptions. "Assassin of Secrets" is a spy thriller novel written by Q. R. Markham, a pen name used by author Quentin Rowan. The novel was published in 2011. It gained attention not…only for its narrative but also for the controversy surrounding it. Markham was later revealed to have plagiarized numerous passages from other spy novels, leading to the book being withdrawn from publication. The revelation of the plagiarism was a significant literary scandal, and Markham faced backlash for the unauthorized use of material from authors such as Robert Ludlum and Charles McCarry. The incident highlighted the importance of literary integrity and the consequences of plagiarism in the publishing world. Copies are, obviously, hard to find.
