Agent Zigzag: A True Story of Nazi Espionage, Love, and Betrayal
reviewed on + 11 more book reviews


Agent Zigzag is a story of an unwitting two-bit con man turned double agent who manages to turn the worst of times into a profitable and adventurous experience. But, in the telling of his story, the more interesting back story of just how little the Nazi and British intelligence agencies actually knew about each other's secrets comes to light.

Well written and fantastic, yet believable, this is a history book that reads like--you guessed it--a spy novel.
