A gripping Cold War thriller, The Red Hen Conspiracy plunges readers into the shadowy world of espionage and political intrigue that defined an era of global tension. Kenneth Benton, a former MI6 officer himself, brings an authentic and authoritative voice to this tale of covert operations, revolutionary cells, and the intelligence agents who work to dismantle them. The novel follows a seasoned operative as he uncovers the workings of a dangerous underground group — the New Revolutionary Group — with far-reaching and destabilising ambitions. Benton writes with the sharp, precise tension of someone who has lived the reality of intelligence work, delivering a plot that is both tightly wound and richly atmospheric. Fans of John le Carré and Len Deighton will find in Benton a kindred spirit, one who grounds his suspense in credible tradecraft and morally complex characters.
