Old Spies: 10 Stories of Pre-WW2 Spying
Spying, is as old as war itself, yet we are drawn to those who risk it all for The Cause (or more probably for the money). These 10 stories show how the right person in the right place at the right time can turn the tide of an entire conflict. Many of the authors here present are writing from first-hand experience, all have lied at some stage, some lie still in their fanciful prose and conjecture. Can you spot the truth amongst the excitement and intrigue?
