With the intrigue of a psychological thriller, the heart of a
romance and the beauty of a fantastical dive into history, The
Tears of Boabdil tells the story of an undercover special agent
unwittingly drawn into a forbidden romance and a glimpse of a
distant past that mirrors today. Longlisted for the McKitterick
Prize Sworn to his country and committed to his work, Vince is an
undercover agent. He masquerades as an Islamic convert to
infiltrate a British Jihadi group. There, he meets Ayesha, the
beautiful sister of the leaders and soon becomes entangled in a way
that threatens his grip on reality. The part he's playing takes
over, and he convinces himself he's in love. Oblivious to the
danger to Ayesha and to his sanity, he lures her into a
relationship. Now he must choose between a duty that strengthens
barriers or a love that breaks them. "A thematically ambitious
novel, interweaving multiple narrative lines. Both disturbing and
arresting." Adam Craig, author of Vitus Dreams and fiction editor
for Cinnamon Press "A joy to read-a range of emotions from sympathy
to horror." Alina Voyce, author of Lifelights
