Safehouse is a literary political novel set in the shadowlands of the Cold War, the Troubles, and Britain's uneasy moral compromises. In 1963, Adrienne is a brilliant and influential international relations expert, advising both the UK and US governments. Her intellectual authority masks a profound emotional distance at home, where her young son Daniel grows up isolated, vulnerable, and increasingly unsafe. At boarding school, he becomes the target of cruelty shaped by prejudice and neglect. Elsewhere in London, Eleanor, a depressive university lecturer grieving a violent loss, is quietly drawn into the orbit of MI5. Asked to observe a charismatic Irishman suspected of IRA involvement, she finds herself entangled in a relationship where love, loyalty, and deception blur. As Daniel's life intersects with Eleanor's world, private griefs collide with political violence, and acts of protection come at an unbearable cost. Safehouse explores betrayal and belonging, motherhood and moral blindness, and the damage done when ideology overrides human responsibility. Taut, compassionate, and unsettling, Safehouse asks what safety really means - and who pays the price for it.
