Search - Spycatcher

I would not have read this book had I not first read "The Secret War Against the Jews" by Loftus & Aarons. Their information was so incredible I felt I had to check it against other published works. The book is supposed to show how Britain's MI6 and MI5 handled the Philby spy case, as well as his three spy-pals. It was said there was a fifth spy in the bureau, one that could not be ascertained. According to Loftus & Aarons, this person actually was Kim Philby's father, Harry St. John Philby. Unfortunately, he is not mentioned in Spycatcher. However, you won't be disappointed with the details of being a spy, planting devices, outwitting the other side, and outwitting your own side in an effort to maintain secrecy. The author retired from MI5 in 1976; therefore, it covers his active work up to that time.

VERY EXCELLENT SPY NOVEL

Highly touted book that was initially banned in Britain because it was too truthful about the nature of British intelligence services.
