Reader Comments

This is a great read! An excellent thriller that would make a brilliant film or television series. It's based on real-life events, 'Operation Gladio', and skilfully weaves fact into page-turning fiction. Complex and exciting--it keeps you guessing right to the end.
great read
I really enjoyed reading Gladio. Exciting, entertaining, plus interesting and politically relevant.
Gladio draws you into Britain of recent history with revelations and reminders - the miners battle against new Thatcherite Tories - the brutality of the IRA and their loyalist enemies - woven into the libertarian loves and lives of the 1980s media and the growing feminist movement. Written with great pace and authenticity by Steve Chambers it'll make a brilliant film. Read it first and discover the organisation so mysterious it would test Smiley's People to the limit.
A book that needed writing
Couldn't put it down, gripping.
Breathtakingly exciting. Great narrative drive and very topical
A great novel - pace,intrigue and action!
