Collection: The Shadow Files – Smart, High-Stakes Thrillers Where Women Hold the Intel

Female-Led Espionage & Techno-Thrillers

Secrets don’t stay buried.
In the Shadow Files, uncovering them is the real danger.

The Shadow Files Thrillers is a gripping series of female-led espionage and techno-thrillers that explore what happens when intelligent women are caught in the crossfire of technology, power, and international conspiracy.

These are globe-spanning thrillers where corporate espionage, cyber warfare, artificial intelligence, and covert intelligence operations collide — and where the truth is often more dangerous than any weapon.

Each novel follows a brilliant woman forced to operate in the shadows: hackers, scientists, analysts, and operatives who uncover secrets powerful forces will kill to protect. From stolen diamonds and rogue algorithms to biotech experiments and sleeper agents, The Shadow Files exposes the hidden systems shaping the modern world.

Often compared to Tom Clancy–style geopolitical thrillers and Stieg Larsson–level intelligence-driven suspense, the series reclaims the genre through a distinctly female lens — prioritising competence, moral complexity, and psychological tension over brute force alone.

What You’ll Find in the Shadow Files Series

Across the series, readers can expect:

  • Female protagonists at the centre of global intelligence crises
  • Modern techno-thriller threats rooted in real science and emerging technology
  • Espionage, corporate sabotage, and covert operations
  • International settings spanning Europe, the Middle East, Africa, the Americas, and beyond
  • High-stakes conspiracies where information is currency and silence is survival

Each book works as a standalone thriller while contributing to a wider thematic exploration of power, surveillance, and who controls the future.
