Download or read book Reminiscences of a Reluctant Spy written by Roma Ravn and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2018-05-28 with total page 630 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The biography is of Steven Kovacs, a Hungarian industrialist before WWII, who, in attempting to further his textile business, was pushed into being a spy for the government. He was given military status and had his own staff. The book documents not only his espionage activities but also his romantic assignations, of which there were many. He survived through several wives, many of whom were lost during the war, as well as hair-raising episodes of dirty dealings and espionage. He and his last wife escaped communism to hide in the outback of Australia, where he befriended many of the Aboriginal tribesmen and experienced the harsh realities of their way of life. He suffered dust storms and snakes, crocodile hunts and close friendships, and was an observer of the mysteries of our Australian outback at very close hand.

Book Synopsis Memories of a Secret Agent by : Paul Kramer
Download or read book Memories of a Secret Agent written by Paul Kramer and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2006 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is essential for the reader to remember that this is a memoir; in other words, a record of events based on the author's experiences and feelings. Because of the secrecy restrictions at the time these events occurred, and in some cases for many years thereafter, the author kept no diary, notes, or record and wrote no letters describing his work. Furthermore, almost without exception, all the people with whom and for whom he worked are now dead. Consequently, in writing this book, the author has been entirely dependent on his memory. At the age of ninety-one, this memory may have at times been defective or twisted. However, there can be no doubt the story is true. Careful research of the archives of the Office of the Coordinator of Inter-American Affairs, the U.S. Navy, and the CIA should substantiate this. But even here, there will be difficulties due to secrecy and the "deindexing" of the FBI's Latin American files by its then-director rather than turn them over to the hated CIA. Moreover, the author's foolish refusal to accede to the request of his commanding officer to write the history of the naval operation Road's End immediately after its conclusion and for which he had received a commendation has erased forever the details of that historic event. Finally, the tragic suicide of the CIA's director of operations subsequent to the Kim Philby espionage scandal diminished the possibility of a proper analysis of events surrounding it in Washington . . .

Book Synopsis Go Spy the Land by : George Alexander Hill
Download or read book Go Spy the Land written by George Alexander Hill and published by Biteback Publishing. This book was released on 2014-01-14 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Before espionage entered the era of modern technology, there was the age of George Alexander Hill: a time of swashbuckling secret agents, swordsticks and secret assignations with deadly female spies. The daring escapades of some of the first members of Britain's secret service are revealed in this account of perilous adventure and audacious missions in Imperial and revolutionary Russia. First published in 1932, Hill's rip-roaring narrative recounts tales of his fellow operatives Arthur Ransome - author of Swallows and Amazons and one of the most effective British spies in Russia - and Sidney Reilly - so-called 'Ace of Spies' and architect of a thwarted plot to assassinate the Bolshevik leadership. Unavailable for decades, this lost classic offers fascinating portraits of a world unfathomable to those growing up against a backdrop of WikiLeaks and cyber espionage, and of true-life characters whose exploits were so extraordinary that they have entered the realm of legend.

Book excerpt: “The best English novel since the war.” -- Philip Roth Over the course of his seemingly irreproachable life, Magnus Pym has been all things to all people: a devoted family man, a trusted colleague, a loyal friend—and the perfect spy. But in the wake of his estranged father’s death, Magnus vanishes, and the British Secret Service is up in arms. Is it grief, or is the reason for his disappearance more sinister? And who is the mysterious man with the sad moustache who also seems to be looking for Magnus? In A Perfect Spy, John le Carré has crafted one of his crowning masterpieces, interweaving a moving and unusual coming-of-age story with a morally tangled chronicle of modern espionage.

Lovely, lying, former French spy Camille Leyland is dragged from her safe rural obscurity by threats and blackmail. Dusting off her spy skills, she sets out to track down a ruthless French fanatic and rescue the innocent victim he’s holding—only to find an old colleague already on the case. Pax. Old friendship turns to new love, and as Pax and Camille’s dark secrets loom up from the past, Pax is left with a choice—go rogue from the Service or lose Camille forever…
Book Synopsis The March of Time by : Aleksandr Orlov
Download or read book The March of Time written by Aleksandr Orlov and published by St Ermins. This book was released on 2004 with total page 438 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Masterspy Alexander Orlov was born in Russia in 1898. His guerrilla activities during and after the Great War caught the attention of Dzerzhinsky, founder of the Soviet secret police. Orlov proved a natural spy, playing a leading role in the creation of the UK's Cambridge network (Philby, Burgess, Maclean and Blunt) as well as the Berlin section of the Red Orchestra, a band of underground agents whose feats helped determine the outcome of the Second World War and its Cold War aftermath. Falling foul of Stalin, he fled to the USA via France and was regarded as a splendid catch by American intelligence officials who constantly debriefed him. Yet he never betrayed the 60-odd moles of whom he had personal knowledge - knowledge that kept KGB hit-men at bay. This is his story, a unique insight into the murky world of intelligence at the highest level.
Book Synopsis Morning Spy, Evening Spy by : Colin MacKinnon
Download or read book Morning Spy, Evening Spy written by Colin MacKinnon and published by St. Martin's Press. This book was released on 2006-10-03 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kareem was an Afghan resistance fighter of the 1980s and was once on the CIA payroll. But now he's responsible for the murder of an American CIA agent in Pakistan, which may compromise an intricate, long-planned CIA operation to capture Osama bin Laden. CIA officer Paul Patterson, who ran Kareem as an agent during the Soviet occupation of Afghanistan, sets out to track him down. Patterson navigates a shadow land of intrigue in England, Africa, the Middle East, and the U.S., where truth and lies seem to merge. Meanwhile, Muhammad Atta and the other conspirators prepare their attack on the World Trade Center. The climax is a stunning reversal of everything that Patterson's quest has led him to expect. Peopled with Washington bureaucrats, old CIA hands who operate by their own set of rules, African rebels, diplomats, and assassins, this thriller captures the world of the CIA and the terrorists with the intensity John le Carré brought to the Cold War.

Download or read book Spymaster written by Tennent H. Bagley and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2015-08-25 with total page 315 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Tennent Bagley’s Spymaster is the single most revealing book about espionage to emerge from the Cold War.” —Edward Jay Epstein, author of Deception: The Invisible War Between the KGB and the CIA From the dark days of World War II through the Cold War, Sergey A. Kondrashev was a major player in Russia’s notorious KGB espionage apparatus. Rising through its ranks through hard work and keen understanding of how the spy and political games are played, he “handled” American and British defectors, recruited Western operatives as double agents, served as a ranking officer at the East Berlin and Vienna KGB bureaus, and tackled special assignments from the Kremlin. During a 1994 television program about former spymasters, Kondrashev met and began a close friendship with a former foe, ex-CIA officer Tennent H. “Pete” Bagley, whom the Russian asked to help write his memoirs. Because Bagley knew so much about Kondrashev’s career (they had been on opposite sides in several operations), his penetrating questions and insights reveal slices of espionage history that rival anything found in the pages of Ian Fleming, Len Deighton, or John le Carré: chilling tales of surviving Stalin’s purges while superiors and colleagues did not, of plotting to reveal the Berlin tunnel, of quelling the Hungarian Revolution and “Prague Spring” independence movements, and of assisting in arranging the final disposition of the corpses of Adolf Hitler and Evan Braun. Kondrashev also details equally fascinating KGB propaganda and disinformation efforts that shaped Western attitudes throughout the Cold War. Because publication of these memoirs was banned by Putin’s regime, Bagley promised Kondrashev to have them published in the West. They are now available to all who are fascinated by vivid tales of international intrigue.
