Reviews

Fascinating biography ... Hemming has done a superb job
*The Times, 'Book of the Week'*

Excellent biography… The author has done a terrific job of unscrambling Knight’s muddled life
*The Sunday Times*

Jaw-droppingly revelatory biography. *****
*Mail on Sunday*

‘Compelling new biography… Hemming has done a wonderful espionage job of his own, scouring obscure files to bring long-hidden agents and their exploits to light. It is also a gripping portrait of an era, now long gone, when the establishment could accommodate such extravagant oddness.
*Daily Telegraph*

Henry Hemming has found a peach of a subject... Full of new material, fresh interpretations and uncompromising integrity... He has managed the great feat of producing a rattling good read that is also a major piece of revisionist history
*Wall Street Journal*

Hemming has written a very readable, thoughtful and comprehensive account
*Literary Review*

I raced through Henry Hemming's book, constantly having to remind myself that it wasn't a work of fiction. It really has everything you'd want from a great espionage story: incredible agents risking their lives; the highest possible stakes, with the safety of the world hanging in the balance; and at its heart a complicated, mercurial spy master in Maxwell Knight spinning an ever more intricate web.
*Matt Charman, Oscar-nominated screenwriter of 'Bridge of Spies'*

A major new biography
*Mail on Sunday*

Engaging and suspenseful
*Financial Times*

Lively contribution to a maverick literature
*The Observer*
