Om denne bog

Pre-order this unforgettable memoir of life in a family like no other, and their extraordinary, eccentric part in half a century of espionage . . .

‘”Did you know him?” a priest asked me when I first visited my father’s impressive marble tomb in Bosnia.
I gave an honest answer – “No, I can’t say I really knew him at all”.

After all, most of my family had at one time or another been with SIS, my mother one of only a handful of female agents to have operated behind the lines in post-war Berlin. I had grown up within the perimeter of a specialist SIS training camp, surrounded by some of the most senior - and colourful - characters in the Service’s history.

So began a personal, insider’s investigation into the life - or lives - of one of SIS''s more unlikely, if highly regarded, officers. And, in an admittedly crowded field, one of its most duplicitous . . .’
