NOA

Marc Levy

May 2022 Proofs in French Original publisher: Robert Laffont | Versilio

Any resemblance to actual persons, living or dead, is purely… Well actually, no, it’s not.

From Oslo to Kyiv, Madrid to Rome, this is the story of 9 cyber outlaws working in cohorts, behind the scenes, to tackle corruption at the highest echelons of international power. At a time when the very notion of truth is under attack, and democracies are being sabotaged, these 9 hackers take on Big Data, oligarchs and autocratic dictators in a masterful feat of cyberwarfare.  These brave heroes will stop at nothing to uncover and foil the most insidious threats of our time. Even if it means putting their lives at risk.

Currently being adapted into a TV series by the award winning director Costa-Gavras, Noa is a cinematic, chilling yet ultimately hopeful geopolitical thriller. With the gripping pace of a spy novel and an uncanny relevance to today’s headlines, this a story to lose yourself in… before you re-emerge in the real world with a renewed desire for change.
