Description
The United Kingdom, Spain, Chile. A story based on real events.
Few people are thought smart enough to be selected and trained as a spy for Her Majesty’s government, fewer qualify. The author is one such man who, uniquely, was chosen at the age of 16 - still the only person to pass selection without an education through the university system and one so young.
In this, Andy’s second book, he describes one short operation that could have stopped the Falklands War with Argentina. SAS were in position, only the final go-ahead was needed from Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher. She chose to fight the war. Perhaps if the PM had decided to give Operation Saponify a chance, 907 soldiers' lives would have been saved. The operation was born from a personal project over many years to find escaped WWII Nazis, using highly classified documents, only available to those inside the service and information supplied by the CIA. Would he find the top Nazi? If he did, history would have to be rewritten.
One Nazi Andy did find was murdered by a little known group in France called “The Avengers” after Andy deliberately passed them information. This Nazi’s subsequent murder proved the existence of a mole inside MI6, London. This story is also a tale of a young man struggling to find love while living in a world of deceit and lies. Everything he knows, everything he is, has been the result of training by the British government and those inside a system where normal life and reality become blurred. A life where normal laws are often ignored for the safety of the State. How could Andy find his soul mate when he could not tell what his real job was? His work would make his life very lonely if he couldn’t find his perfect partner. Karen could have been his perfect partner. Yet, her own work inside the service would prevent them from being together, prevented by the very people he works for, MI6.
In 2012, when he was informed Karen had died from cancer, he finally decided to reveal his secret life to his friends and family to release the buried secrets from his struggling sanity. A risky choice, one he did not take lightly, but he knew deep inside it was the only way forward for his peace of mind.
This is his personal story, thrilling, surprising, and an eye-opener into the life of an ordinary guy who truly was an unknown spy. Be ready to rewrite history....
