Alec de Payns blows a simple Beijing exfil, loses a defector and gets cut by Paris. With a dead man’s hint about a market-shaking cyberattack, he moves through safe houses and dirty money in Bangkok and Saigon while his family becomes leverage.
Every favour costs. Every ally wants proof. Beaumont writes tradecraft with the ring of use, from brush passes to burned signals. Expect ruthless operators, back-channel cash and a final choice that hurts. Tropes: burned spy on the run, global conspiracy, family in danger.

While recruiting a Russian human source embedded in the shadows of illicit financial networks, French spy Alec de Payns is abruptly pulled from the field. His new mission: exfiltrate a North Korean walk-in from Beijing who claims to know the details of a massive cyberattack that could destroy the world's economy. But before the defector can utter a word, he dies in de Payns' arms on the journey home.
The failure of such a routine job enrages France's new prime minister, who views the covert actions of the DGSE - the French external spy agency - as a political liability. When de Payns' next mission mysteriously collapses, the Company has no choice but to disavow him.
Now exposed, hunted across South-East Asia and cut off from official support, de Payns must survive alone, untangle a deadly conspiracy and protect his family. But in a world of deception, who can he trust? And who is truly pulling the strings in this deadly liar's game?
Based on Jack Beaumont's experiences as a former DGSE operative, Liar's Game delivers the incredible authenticity, action and suspense that have made the bestselling Frenchman series an international success.
