Published as part of the prestigious Inner Sanctum Mystery imprint, this taut narrative follows the investigation into a man whose identity may be the key to unravelling a deeply buried espionage conspiracy, drawing readers into a shadowy world of deception, intelligence agencies, and buried loyalties where nothing — and no one — can be taken at face value.\n\nRoth, who earned her reputation with the acclaimed The Content Assignment, writes with a precise, understated authority that strips the spy thriller down to its psychological essentials, prioritising character and atmosphere over melodrama. The Sleeper stands as a fine example of mid-century American crime fiction at its most intelligent — tense, cerebral, and laced with moral ambiguity — leaving the reader to question whether the truth, once uncovered, is something anyone was truly prepared to face.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49161041707227,"sku":"2026200011308-SECONDHAND","price":35.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/5c5de420-1bce-466e-ac5a-9946773958a9.png?v=1787189597","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200011308-secondhand-the-sleeper","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
