The Kate Moore series begins with The Expats (2012), which introduced readers to an American woman living in Luxembourg whose comfortable expatriate life conceals a web of secrets. The Edgar Award-winning debut established Kate as a protagonist who is both an ordinary mother and someone with a hidden past in intelligence work.
O Manuscrito (2014) and The Paris Diversion (2019) follow Kate into new settings and new complications. The series trades on the tension between domestic normalcy and the dangerous world of espionage, with Kate caught between the life she wants and the one she can’t fully leave behind.
