A Spy Among Friends - Ben Macintyre's excellent addition to the well-documented Cambridge Spy Ring. An interesting take on how Kim Philly was tracked down by his chum Nicholas Elliott and, to a lesser degree, James Angleton. Well written and skilfully plotted, despite a non-fiction piece. Friendship or country first? Discuss.
Also enjoyed Andrew Lownie's excellent biog of Guy Burgess. Fascinating portrait of the man and a revealing social history of middle / upper class Britain on either side of the second world war.
Just finished "Double Cross" by Ben Macintyre - The True Story of the D-Day Spies.
A wonderful book that gives a real insight into the mindset needed to run a successful stable of double agents in the war - from the perspective of the Agent and of the British Spy Chiefs - it touches on Blunt, Burgess, Philby, et al - ironically Blunt was working in the heart of the British Secret Service and acting as a double agent for the Russians.
