“At the operation’s core was the belief that reality was more valuable than propaganda. That truth was contagious. The goal of QRHELPFUL wasn’t to paint an idealized portrait of the West; it was to free intellectual constraints, to unfasten the ‘straitjacket imposed by Moscow,’

Hard Town is a mere $2.99 on Kindle for a limited time only. Buy it immediately. Or just disregard this and keep doing what you were doing. Either decision is a defensible one.

Cool to see my review of Charlie English's THE CIA BOOK CLUB in the print edition of The Washington Post. Loved reading this book about the #CIA smuggling literature behind the Iron Curtain. #theciabookclub 🔗washingtonpost.com/books/2025/07/…

Today in #NYC: rollerskated to Simon & Schuster to chat w/ my wonderful Atria Books editor & the inimitable Atria Mystery Bus (getting my skate practice in before the big skate Saturday). Did some work in the NY Public Library before it closed due to torrential rains. Recuperating. #spyonskates

Well, sadly, Big Apple Roll did not go as planned. 🛼Slipped on a curb, broke my wrist in 2 places (can still type...slowly). Shout-out to the staff at NYC Health + Hospitals/Bellevue, who are the best I've ever seen & to my pal Jack Murphy who served as my emergency contact. #spyonskatesnomore

When her day job was recruiting spies for the CIA, writing thrillers is just muscle memory. IS Berry proves spycraft and storytelling go hand in hand- truth really is stranger (and cooler) than fiction. #Author #CIA #spyauthor #spythriller #spycraft thetimes.com/culture/books/…

I.S. Berry | THE PEACOCK AND THE SPARROW Tim Shipman Love seeing the real-life spy behind the pen get the spotlight. Your story adds serious depth to the genre. And shoutout to Tim Shipman for pulling back the curtain. Can’t wait to see what intel-inspired twist you write next! #SpyFiction #ISBerry #RealLifeTradecraft
