"Few novels from any era bring us a heroine like Nasty Business's Nicolette Beverly. In this fast-paced story, A.R. Goldsmith leads the reader on a rollercoaster ride-time-traveling expertly back to 1970's England and into the Cold War as the British Intelligence begins to train young women, sorely needed, into its espionage program. Following Nicky and her friends through tough training and into their first mission will keep you turning the page in anticipation. You cheer for these smart and savvy young women who are quickly putting the old guard on notice with athleticism, brains and killer instincts to get the job done."

-Victoria Bruce, author of No Apparent Danger , Hostage Nation & Inspector Oldfield and The Black Hand Society

"An intriguing coming-of-age spy thriller-intricate and possibly prescient, even though set in the past- A Nasty Business is the start of a series you won't want to miss!"

"As A.R.'s first foray into the author's world of fiction, he has done a fine job of creating humor, happiness, emotions, stress, fear and accomplishments. A Nasty Business delivers an in-depth view of the journey of a young woman from the safe and secure life in a small village to a role in British Intelligence."
