The Year of the Locust

Terry Hayes is a former journalist and multi award-winning screenwriter. He wrote screenplays for, amongst others, Mad Max 2 – Road Warrior (1981), Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome (1985), Dead Calm (1989), Payback (1999), Vertical Limit (2000), From Hell (2001). His debut worldwide cult phenomenon was I Am Pilgrim pitted a crack spy against an Islamic terrorist aiming to unleash smallpox on the world. Ten years later, Terry Hayes returns with his latest novel, The Year of the Locust. It is a compelling and sweeping thriller that captures readers’ interest from the first page. Kane, a Denied Access Area spy for the CIA, is being sent to the land borders of Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Iran to try to gather information about an increasingly powerful terrorist group known as the Army of the Pure. An epic that is a hefty read, reminiscent of classic spy novels but with a modern and innovative twist. The author incorporates elements of thriller, sci-fi, and mystery, creating a narrative that is as complex as it is captivating. The finale takes the story into some truly surprising territory that readers will never see coming and which raises the stakes to truly astronomical levels. JC Lattès is the French editor of Terry Hayes’ novels.
