Just in time for the next James Bond movie, learn about the reality of being part of MI6 with this exciting exploration of British foreign secret service espionage. Written by expert Nigel West, this book reveals the operations of MI6, tracing its origins back to 1909. Through meticulous research and original secret service documents, it details the agency's structure and activities, focusing primarily on its operations during World War II. The narrative includes remarkable successes and failures, such as the financing of a glamorous confidant of the German secret service, the accidental murder of a suspected French traitor, and the bribing of Franco's military advisors to keep Spain neutral. It also covers the blackmailing of Swedish secret police to aid the British war effort and a sabotage operation in Tangiers that allowed Allied landings in North Africa to remain undetected. The book recounts operations from nearly all of MI6's overseas stations, captivating both intelligence professionals and general readers. It features organizational charts illustrating MI6's internal structure and wartime network, along with insights from interviews with intelligence officers and agents, shedding light on previously unexplained wartime incidents.
In his introduction to the American edition of this book, the author refers to 'this final version' as 'the most detailed account of MI5s work ever published' & 'for those who find it closer to fiction than fact, they have MI5s word for it that it is indeed all too terribly true.'
