Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

George Weightman’s narration is a standout feature. His portrayal of Harry Tower, from his gruff exterior to moments of vulnerability, is both compelling and realistic. The pacing is masterful; the initial chapters move at a deliberate pace, gradually building up to a fever pitch as events unfold in Iran. However, some might find the exposition on espionage somewhat slow to begin with. Despite this minor quibble, ‘Yesterday’s Spy’ is an engaging listen that will keep you hooked until the very end. The suspenseful narrative and Weightman's stellar performance make it a must-listen for fans of spy thrillers and those who appreciate nuanced character development.
