The Defence of the Realm, Christopher Andrews, Sold Out

How much do we really know about our Intelligence Services and can we trust them? Christopher Andrew was granted access to MI5 archives and the resulting book The Defence of the Realm reveals more of than ever before about the role the British Security Service has played in twentieth century history. In Papa Spy Jimmy Burns tells the story of his father’s work for the secret services in 1940’s Spain and his betrayal by Kim Philby and Anthony Blunt. They talk with novelist Jenni Mills. Qui custodiet ipsos custodes?
