Book Preview:
#1 The secret service had to build upon slim prewar beginnings. One reliable agent was Arthur George Owens, who was working for a high-technology firm with business interests in Germany. He was an electrical engineer, chemist, and inventor, and his abilities in battery technology opened doors for him on the Continent.
#2 The German intelligence agency, the Abwehr, recruited two Norwegian lads, Helge Moe and Tor Glad, and trained them to be saboteurs. They succeeded in such missions as destroying a food storage dump and an electricity generating station.
#3 The Allies had a very effective network of spies in place, and they used them to gather information on the Germans. The Germans, on the other hand, were using spies that were actually working for the British, who were in control of the entire network.
#4 The British spy Dusko Popov was courted by the Germans in Belgrade, but he slipped away to check with the British embassy. They told him to go along with the Germans while actually working for them. Popov did go to Britain as a well-off Yugoslav businessman.

#4
The British spy Dusko Popov was courted by the Germans in Belgrade, but he slipped away to check with the British embassy. They told him to go along with the Germans while actually working for them. Popov did go to Britain as a well-off Yugoslav businessman.
#5
The Abwehr, the German intelligence agency, attempted to land agents in Britain in 1940, but all were captured or gave themselves up. The exception was Wulf Schmidt, who developed into one of the most trusted and useful of the double agents.
#6
The British were able to capture the entire German espionage system, and they wasted no time in gloating over the irony of having an enemy’s entire espionage system under their control.
